Fiducial Stellar Population Sequences for the VJKs Photometric System

open access: yes, 2010
We have obtained broad-band near-infrared photometry for seven Galactic star clusters (M92, M15, M13, M5, NGC1851, M71 and NGC6791) using the WIRCam wide-field imager on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, supplemented by images of NGC1851 taken with ...

Hot subdwarf formation: Confronting theory with observation

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The formation of hot subdwarf stars is still unclear. Both single-star and binary scenarios have been proposed to explain the properties of these evolved stars situated at the extreme blue end of the horizontal branch. The observational evidence gathered

High-velocity streams in the Milky Way halo with the SDSS and GSC-II kinematic survey

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
We explore the stellar halo of the Milky Way to search for fossil signatures of past mergers, consisting of streams of particles torn from their progenitors during the process of hierarchical merging.

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.

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 ...

He-rich Hot Subdwarf Stars Observed in Gaia DR3 and LAMOST DR7: Carbon and Nitrogen Abundances and Kinematics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We conducted an analysis of the abundances of He, C, and N in 210 He-rich hot subdwarfs observed within both the Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) and LAMOST DR7 data sets.
