Hot subdwarfs from the surviving companions of the white dwarf + main-sequence channel of Type Ia supernovae [PDF]
Some surviving companions of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the white-dwarf + main-sequence (WD + MS) channel may evolve to hot subdwarfs. In this paper, we preformed stellar evolution calculations for surviving companions of close WD +MS systems in ...

WISEA J041451.67–585456.7 and WISEA J181006.18–101000.5: The First Extreme T-type Subdwarfs? [PDF]
We present the discoveries of WISEA J041451.67−585456.7 and WISEA J181006.18−101000.5, two low-temperature (1200–1400 K), high proper motion T-type subdwarfs. Both objects were discovered via their high proper motion (>0.″5 yr−1); WISEA J181006.18−101000.

Phases of Mass Transfer from Hot Subdwarfs to White Dwarf Companions and Their Photometric Properties [PDF]
Binary systems of a hot subdwarf B (sdB) star + a white dwarf (WD) with orbital periods less than 2–3 hr can come into contact due to gravitational waves and transfer mass from the sdB star to the WD before the sdB star ceases nuclear burning and ...

Wide companions to M and L subdwarfs with Gaia and the Virtual Observatory [PDF]
Aims. The aim of the project is to identify wide common proper motion companions to a sample of spectroscopically confirmed M and L metal-poor dwarfs (also known as subdwarfs) to investigate the impact of metallicity on the binary fraction of low-mass ...

A Robust Identification Method for Hot Subdwarfs Based on Deep Learning
Hot subdwarf stars are a particular type of star that is crucial for studying binary evolution and atmospheric diffusion processes. In recent years, identifying hot subdwarfs by machine-learning methods has become a hot topic, but there are still ...

Post-merger evolution of double helium white dwarfs and distribution of helium-rich hot subdwarfs [PDF]
The mergers of double helium white dwarfs are believed to form isolated helium-rich hot subdwarfs. Observation shows that the helium-rich hot subdwarfs can be divided into two subgroups based on whether the surface is carbonrich or carbon-normal.

The subdwarf luminosity function [PDF]
Using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Early Data Release and SuperCOSMOS Sky Survey scans of POSS-I plates we identify a sample of 2600 subdwarfs using reduced proper motion methods and strict selection criteria. This forms one of the largest and most reliable samples of candidate subdwarfs known, and enables us to determine accurate luminosity ...

Spectral models for binary products: Unifying subdwarfs and Wolf-Rayet stars as a sequence of stripped-envelope stars [PDF]
Stars stripped of their hydrogen-rich envelope through interaction with a binary companion are generally not considered when accounting for ionizing radiation from stellar populations, despite the expectation that stripped stars emit hard ionizing ...
