UOCS-XIX. A Multiwavelength Study of Open Cluster Trumpler 5: Cluster Properties and Exotic Populations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Trumpler 5 is a populous, intermediate-age (∼3 Gyr), metal-poor ([Fe/H] ∼ −0.4) open cluster, located at a distance of approximately ∼3050 pc. This is a well-studied cluster for its broadened main-sequence (MS) and blue straggler star (BSS) population ...

A Search for High-frequency Oscillations in TESS Cycle 7

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
High-quality, short-cadence photometry from TESS enables the detection of rapid oscillators with unprecedented sensitivity. In this work, we conduct a homogeneous search for high-frequency variability using 20 s cadence light curves from TESS Cycle 7 ...

From main-sequence binary to blast: MESA modeling of the double-detonation progenitor PTF1 J2238+7430

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Hot subdwarf B (sdB) stars in close binaries with white dwarf (WD) companions are potential progenitors of double-detonation thermonuclear supernovae.

Wide B-type hot subdwarf binaries

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Long-period binary systems containing a B-type hot subdwarf (sdB) and a main sequence (MS) companion are thought to originate from binary interactions involving stable mass transfer from the red giant, which is the progenitor of the sdB, to the ...

The evolution of a hot subdwarf: observations of the pulsating subdwarf B star Feige~48

open access: yes, 2003
Since pulsating subdwarf B (sdBV or EC14026) stars were first discovered (Kilkenny et al, 1997), observational efforts have tried to realize their potential for constraining the interior physics of extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars. Difficulties encountered along the way include uncertain mode identifications and a lack of stable pulsation mode ...

Disk-regulated Mass Transfer between Rotating Nondegenerate Stars: Insights from Be and sdOB Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Mass transfer between nondegenerate stars is a fundamental but still poorly understood process in binary evolution. The commonly used rotationally limited accretion prescription in detailed binary evolution simulations that account for stellar rotation ...

A comprehensive search for hot subdwarf stars using Gaia and TESS

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Hot subdwarf B (sdB) stars are evolved, subluminous, helium-burning stars that most likely form when red giant stars loose their hydrogen envelope via interactions with close companions. They play an important role in our understanding of binary evolution, stellar atmospheres, and interiors.
