MUCHFUSS - Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS
S. Geier, V. Schaffenroth, H. Hirsch +15
The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding hot subdwarf stars with massive compact companions (white dwarfs with ma…
The MUCHFUSS project - Searching for the most massive companions to hot subdwarf stars in close binaries and finding the least massive ones
S. Geier, V. Schaffenroth, H. Hirsch +12
The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding hot subdwarf stars with massive compact companions (massive white dwarfs…
The MUCHFUSS project - Searching for hot subdwarf binaries with massive unseen companions: Survey, target selection and atmospheric parameters
S. Geier, H. Hirsch, A. Tillich +9
The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding sdBs with compact companions like supermassive white dwarfs (M>1.0 Msun)…
Substellar companions and the formation of hot subdwarf stars
S. Geier, U. Heber, A. Tillich +12
We give a brief review over the observational evidence for close substellar companions to hot subdwarf stars. The formation of these core helium-burning objects requires huge mass…
The Hyper-MUCHFUSS project: probing the Galactic halo with sdB stars
A. Tillich, U. Heber, S. Geier +7
High-velocity stars in the Galactic halo, e.g. the so-called hyper-velocity stars (HVS), are important tracers of the properties of the dark matter halo, in particular its mass. Ba…
Massive unseen companions to hot faint underluminous stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) - Analysis of seven close subdwarf B binaries
S. Geier, P. F. L. Maxted, R. Napiwotzki +12
The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding hot subdwarf stars with massive compact companions like massive white dw…
