VALIDATION OF MATHS. “In such WD–WD binaries, the physics of tidal dissipation studied in this paper can be directly applied, and equations (11)–(13) remain valid. In fact, the BH mass scales out if one expresses the pericentre distance in terms of the dimensionless parameter η.” (WD = white dwarf; BH = black hole).
