Abstract
The Kepler and K2 missions discovered multiple ZZ Ceti white dwarf pulsators that exhibit recurrent outbursts. These outbursting white dwarfs are near the red edge of the ZZ Ceti instability strip, suggesting that the phenomenon is physically related to the cessation of pulsations. We present multi-day ground-based monitoring of the poorly studied red-edge ZZ Ceti pulsator PG 1541+651. We do not detect any outbursts in our data. We do find that this pulsator has a very rich and time-variable spectrum of modes in its periodogram. The white dwarf lies in the northern continuous viewing zone of TESS; therefore, it has extensive archival light curves ripe for a detailed asteroseismic analysis of this star.
