Scientific paper

Results from the first white dwarf catalog based on Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectra from DR1 (Kleinman et al., 2004) and the second based on DR4 (Eisenstein et al., 2006) already include roughly 10,000 white dwarf identifications, 80+ new DA variables, 8 new DB variables (Nitta et al., these proceedings), and new insights into the overall mass distribution of white dwarf stars and its tails. We have now begun work on a DR6-based SDSS white dwarf catalog and here discuss our new revised model grid and fitting results and analyses from this effort.
