Gilles Fontaine (1948 – November 1, 2019) was a prominent astrophysics professor at the Université de Montréal, Canada. His research mainly focused on white dwarfs, sub-dwarf stars, and astroseismology. He played a significant role in understanding the properties of white dwarfs, particularly their equations of state and phase transitions at high densities. Fontaine's work contributed to the theoretical and observational studies crucial for grasping the interior structures of pulsating stars through variations in their brightness.
