Scientific paper

We derive properties of white dwarf companions to luminous stars by
means of ultraviolet spectroscopy. The Lyman line profiles constrain the
temperature and gravity of the white dwarfs. The parameters are used to
estimate the white dwarf ages and masses enabling a study of the binary
birth and evolution and possible constraints on the initial mass ratios.
