摘要：
The luminosity function of white dwarfs can be used to obtain helpful information about the properties of the Galaxy and allows one to discriminate among different models of galactic evolution. In this paper we provide the necessary tools to construct theoretical luminosity functions for any star formation rate, any initial mass function, and any relationship between the mass of the white dwarf and the mass of the progenitor.
