BlackGEM observations of compact pulsating stars

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. While space-based telescopes offer unparalleled precision for asteroseismology, ground-based observations remain crucial for identifying compact pulsator candidates and enabling their pulsational study through multi-colour photometry.

Observing orbital decay in the ultracompact hot subdwarf binary system ZTFJ213056.71+442046.5

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Ultracompact Galactic binary systems emit low-frequency gravitational waves in the millihertz regime. The emission of gravitational waves causes these systems to lose angular momentum, which is detectable by observing the decay of the orbital ...

Toward 3D orbits of wide sdO/B binaries

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Hot subdwarf stars (sdO/Bs) are widely considered to be products of binary evolution. A significant fraction of them is found in long-period or wide binaries (P > 500 d) with main-sequence (MS) companions, likely resulting from a stable mass-transfer ...

Mapping the Local Halo: Statistical Parallax Analysis of SDSS Low-Mass Subdwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a statistical parallax study of nearly 2000 M subdwarfs with photometry and spectroscopy from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Statistical parallax analysis yields the mean absolute magnitudes, mean velocities, and velocity ellipsoids for ...

SALT spectroscopy of hydrogen-deficient stars

open access: yes, 2018
The majority of hot subdwarfs lie on or close to the helium main-sequence. Many have hydrogen-rich surfaces, but a substantial fraction have hydrogen-depleted or hydrogen-deficient surfaces.

Systematic Effects On Photometric Parallaxes For Fgk Dwarfs And Subdwarfs

open access: yes
Hipparcos trigonometric parallaxes were used to establish a preliminary absolute magnitude calibration in terms of effective temperature, metallicity and evolutionary stage indicators for FGK dwarfs and subdwarfs.

Fine structure in the phase space distribution of nearby subdwarfs

open access: yes, 2006
We analysed the fine structure of the phase space distribution function of nearby subdwarfs using data extracted from various catalogues. Applying a new search strategy based on Dekker's theory of galactic orbits, we found four overdensely populated

Evidence for neutron capture in heavy-metal hot subdwarfs

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Most hot subdwarfs (sdO/B) are low-mass core-helium-burning stars formed through binary interaction. A subgroup of intermediate He-rich sdOBs shows extreme heavy metal (Z > 30) enrichments exceeding 104 times solar, particularly in Zr or Pb ...
