SDSS J125637-022452: a high proper motion L subdwarf [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We report the discovery of a high proper motion L subdwarf ($\mu$ =0.617arcsec/yr) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectral database. The optical spectrum from the star SDSS J125637-022452 has mixed spectral features of both late-M spectral subtype ...

Constraining Roche-Lobe Overflow Models Using the Hot-Subdwarf Wide Binary Population

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
One of the important issues regarding the final evolution of stars is the impact of binarity. A rich zoo of peculiar, evolved objects are born from the interaction between the loosely bound envelope of a giant, and the gravitational pull of a companion ...

A search for lithium in metal-poor L dwarfs

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of the project is to search for lithium in absorption at 6707.8 Angstroms to constrain the nature and the mass of the brightest low-metallicity L-type dwarfs (refered to as L subdwarfs) identified in large-scale surveys.

New Pulse Timing Measurements of the sdBV Star CS 1246

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
CS 1246 is a hot subdwarf B star discovered in 2009 to exhibit a single, large-amplitude radial pulsation. An O-C diagram constructed from this mode revealed reflex motion due to the presence of a low-mass M dwarf, as well as a long-term trend consistent

К ВОПРОСУ О ВКЛАДЕ ВЫРОЖДЕННЫХ КАРЛИКОВ БЛИЖАЙШИХ ОКРЕСТНОСТЕЙ СОЛНЦА, ГАЛО И НАСЕЛЕНИЯ III В МАССУ ТЕМНОЙ МАТЕРИИ

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2011
The data about occurrence frequency of substars and white dwarfs among close stars are analyzed. The estimation of partial content of subdwarfs and stellar remains among populations II and III as function of power of initial mass function have been made.

Extreme Enhancements of r-process Elements in the Cool Metal-Poor Main-Sequence Star SDSS J2357-0052

open access: yes, 2010
We report the discovery of a cool metal-poor, main-sequence star exhibiting large excesses of r-process elements. This star is one of two newly discovered cool subdwarfs (effective temperatures of 5000 K) with extremely low metallicity ([Fe/H]

The hot subdwarfs revisited

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1982
The properties and evolutionary status of the hot B and O subdwarfs are reinvestigated using recent homogeneous grids of hot, high-gravity model atmospheres and detailed convective envelope calculations appropriate to the hot subdwarf region of the H-R diagram discussed by Greenstein and Sargent.

On the 3He anomaly in hot subdwarf B stars

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
Decades ago, 3He isotope enrichment in helium-weak B-type main-sequence, in blue horizontal branch and in hot subdwarf B (sdB) stars, i.e., helium-core burning stars of the extreme horizontal branch, were discovered. Diffusion processes in the atmosphere

The Schizophrenic Spectrum of LSR 1610-0040: a Peculiar M Dwarf/Subdwarf

open access: yes, 2005
We present a moderate resolution (R=2000), 0.8-4.1 micron spectrum of LSR 1610-0040, a high proper motion star classified as an early-type L subdwarf by Lepine and collaborators based on its red-optical spectrum.

Spectral energy distribution of M-subdwarfs: A study of their atmospheric properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Context. M-type subdwarfs are metal-poor low-mass stars and probe for the old populations in our Galaxy. Accurate knowledge of their atmospheric parameters and especially the composition is essential for understanding the chemical history of our Galaxy ...
