Hot Subdwarf Stars Identified in LAMOST DR8 with Single-lined and Composite Spectra
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 A total of 222 hot subdwarf stars were identified with LAMOST DR8 spectra, among which 131 stars show composite spectra and have been decomposed, while 91 stars present single-lined spectra.

The origin of subdwarf B stars
Bulletin de la Société Royale des Sciences de Liège, 2023 The origin of subdwarf B stars (sdBs) is unclear. Different formation channels are proposed including: close-binary evolution, helium-mixing on the red giant branch and the hot flasher scenario. Circumstantial evidence exists that sdBs can result from single star evolution in high metallicity populations.

Gamma Cas Stars as Be+White Dwarf Binary Systems
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022 The origin of the bright and hard X-ray emission flux among the γ Cas subgroup of B-emission line (Be) stars may be caused by gas accretion onto an orbiting white dwarf (WD) companion.

The origin of subdwarf B stars - II [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2003 We have carried out a detailed binary population synthesis (BPS) study of the formation of subdwarf B (sdB) stars and related objects (sdO, sdOB stars) using the latest version of the BPS code developed by Han and co-workers. We systematically investigate the importance of the five main evolutionary channels in which the sdB stars form after one or two

The Scale Height of Blue Halo Subdwarf B Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1995 Numerous blue halo stars have been discovered during the past decade (e.g. the Palomar-Green Survey). Many are horizontal branch type, being HBA, HBB, sdB, or sdO star. The sdB stars (Teff between ≈ 18 000 and ≈ 30 000 K) are the endproducts of evolution in the red-giant phase.

Physical parameters for subdwarf B stars with composite spectra [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2002 For many years, the evolutionary origins of subdwarf B stars remained a mystery. Observations of sdB stars with composite spectra and theoretical considerations suggested that binary star evolution should play a major role, but proof that a large fraction are binaries has taken a decade to establish.

In Pursuit of the Least Luminous Galaxies
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 The dwarf galaxy companions to the Milky Way are unique cosmological laboratories. With luminosities as low as 10−7LMW, they inhabit the lowest mass dark matter halos known to host stars and are presently the most direct tracers of the distribution, mass spectrum, and clustering scale of dark matter.

Mass Distribution for Single-lined Hot Subdwarf Stars in LAMOST
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Masses for 664 single-lined hot subdwarf stars identified in LAMOST were calculated by comparing synthetic fluxes from spectral energy distribution with observed fluxes from a Virtual Observatory service.
