Kinematics of nearby subdwarf stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2005
We present an analysis of the space motions of 742 subdwarf stars based on the sample of Carney et al. (1994, CLLA). Hipparcos parallaxes, TYC2+HIP proper motions and Tycho2 proper motions were combined with radial velocities and metallicities from CLLA. The kinematical behavior is discussed in particular in relation to their metallicities.

Diffusion in hot subdwarf progenitors from the common envelope channel

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
Diffusion of elements in the atmosphere of a star can drastically affect its surface composition, sometimes leading to unusual mixtures. These chemically peculiar stars can be identified fromthe presence of unusual lines in their spectra.

Wolf 1130: A Nearby Triple System Containing a Cool, Ultramassive White Dwarf [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Following the discovery of the T8 subdwarf WISEJ200520.38+542433.9 (Wolf 1130C), with common proper motion to a binary (Wolf 1130AB) consisting of an M subdwarf and a white dwarf, we set out to learn more about the old binary in the system.

Asteroseismology of Pulsating sdB Stars Observed at Catania Astrophysical Observatory

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2003
We present analysis of the data collected during three years of photometric campaigns at the 91 cm Cassegrain telescope of the Catania Astrophysical Observatory to observe the pulsating subdwarf B star PG 1336-018.

Mass Distribution for Single-lined Hot Subdwarf Stars in LAMOST

open access: yesThe 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.

MUCHFUSS - Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding hot subdwarf stars with massive compact companions (white dwarfs with masses $M>1.0 {\rm M_{\odot}}$, neutron stars or black holes). The existence

Evidence of Resonant Mode Coupling in the Hot B Subdwarf Star KIC 10139564

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The Kepler spacecraft provides new opportinuties to observe long term frequency and amplitude modulations of oscillation modes in pulsating stars. We analyzed more than three years of uninterrupted data obtained with this instrument on the hot B subdwarf

Spectroscopy of hot subdwarf binaries

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2018
We present a status report of our spectroscopic analysis of subdwarf binaries consisting of a subdwarf and a F/G/K-type main-sequence companion. These systems selected from SDSS photometry show significant excess in the (infra-)red which can not be ...

Looking at the bright side - The story of AA Dor as revealed by its cool companion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Irradiation effects in close binaries are crucial for a reliable determination of system parameters and understanding the close binary evolution. We study irradiated light originating from the low mass component of an eclipsing system comprising a hot ...

The Unseen Population of F to K-type Companions to Hot Subdwarf Stars

open access: yes, 2012
We present a method to select hot subdwarf stars with A to M-type companions using photometric selection criteria. We cover a wide range in wavelength by combining GALEX ultraviolet data, optical photometry from the SDSS and the Carlsberg Meridian ...
