- Abstract: Many Fermi gamma-ray sources have turned out to be millisecond pulsar binaries, many of them rare black widow/redback/huntsman systems. To identify new candidates we are period searching ZTF data in Fermi error circles as well as cross-correlating other X-ray and radio catalogs and performing RV followup.

- Lead: Zach Vanderbosch, others involved: J.J. Hermes
- Abstract: Transiting planetary debris systems offer a unique perspective into the earlier stages of disruption of planetary bodies around white dwarfs. We are using a combination of ZTF light curves and Gaia source catalogs to identify new candidates using a curated set of photometric variability metrics. We then use follow-up observing resources to characterize these systems in detail.
