An artist's impression of AR Scorpii. (M. Garlick/University of Warwick/ESO)The newly discovered J1912-4410 also fit with several other characteristics of the dynamo model. White dwarf pulsars should be relatively cool, showing that crystallization is occurring inside, and close enough to their binary companion that mass transfer could have happened in the past to increase the white dwarf's spin. J1912-4410 matches these characteristics perfectly.
