A new class of pulsating hot subdwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Using high-cadence observations from the Zwicky Transient Facility at low Galactic latitudes, we have discovered a new class of pulsating, hot, compact stars. We have found four candidates, exhibiting blue colors ($g-r\leq-0.1$ mag), pulsation amplitudes

Detection of stellar oscillations in HWVir

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2016
We present our analysis of K2 observations of the binary system, HWVir. We processed the raw Kepler data and used Fourier analysis to search for periodic signals that could be associated with pulsations.

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.

BV CCD Photometry of M71: Distance and Age [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2004
We present BV CCD photometry of metal-rich globular cluster M71. Based on our color-magnitude diagram (CMD), we derive the distance to M71 using a sample of Hipparcos subdwarfs of similar metallicity. Our distance modulus is (m-M)V=13.46(± 0.17).

Rotation in sdB stars as revealed by stellar oscillations

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2018
An interesting opportunity offered by the detection of stellar oscillations is the possibility to infer the internal rotation rate of a star through the so-called rotational splittings. Such seismic measurements remained rather scarce for hot B subdwarf (

Hot Subdwarf Stars

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2009
Hot subdwarf stars (sdBs, sdOs) are core helium-burning stars at the blue end of the horizontal branch or have evolved even beyond that stage. They are found in all Galactic stellar populations and are sufficiently common to account for the UV-upturn of early-type galaxies.

Searching for hot subdwarf stars from the LAMOST Spectra. II. Pure spectroscopic identification method for hot subdwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesNippon Tenmon Gakkai obun kenkyu hokoku, 2019
Employing a new machine learning method, named hierarchical extreme learning machine (HELM) algorithm, we identified 56 hot subdwarf stars in the first data release (DR1) of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) survey ...

A small survey of UV-bright stars around the northern ecliptic pole: seeking new p-mode sdB variables for the TESS mission

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2019
Starting in 2019, the TESS mission will monitor the northern ecliptic pole for 1 year. Data will be collected at 30-minute and 2-minute cadences, and only a limited amount of slots will be reserved for targets requiring a 20- second cadence.

Hot subdwarfs formed from the merger of two He white dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We perform stellar evolution calculations of the remnant of the merger of two He white dwarfs (WDs). Our initial conditions are taken from hydrodynamic simulations of double WD mergers and the viscous disc phase that follows. We evolve these objects from

Understanding Fundamental Properties and Atmospheric Features of Subdwarfs via a Case Study of SDSS J125637.13–022452.4 [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
We present the distance-calibrated spectral energy distribution (SED) of the sdL3.5 subdwarf SDSS J125637.13−022452.4 (J1256−0224) using its Gaia DR2 parallax.
