The Arizona-Montréal spectroscopic survey of hot subluminous stars

M. Latour, E. M. Green, M. Dorsch +6

Hot subdwarf B (sdB) and O (sdO) type stars are evolved helium-burning objects that lost their hydrogen envelope before the helium flash when their progenitors were close to the ti…

The heart of Sakurai's Object revealed by ALMA

Daniel Tafoya, Peter A. M. van Hoof, Jesus A. Toala +7

We present high angular-resolution observations of Sakurai's object using the Atacama Large Millimeter Array, shedding new light on its morpho-kinematical structure. The millimetre…

PB 8783: the first sdO star suitable for asteroseismic modeling?

Valerie Van Grootel, Suzanna K. Randall, Marilyn Latour +5

Pulsating hot B subdwarf (sdB) stars, which are core-He burning objects, are one of the showcases of asteroseismology. Thanks to the combination of rich pulsation spectra and state…

SHOTGLAS I: The ultimate spectroscopic census of extreme horizontal branch stars in Centauri

Marilyn Latour, Suzanna K. Randall, Annalisa Calamida +2

The presence of extreme horizontal branch (EHB) and blue hook stars in some Galactic globular clusters (GGCs) constitutes one of the remaining mysteries of stellar evolution. In th…

Just how hot are the Centauri extreme horizontal branch pulsators?

M. Latour, S. K. Randall, P. Chayer +5

Past studies based on optical spectroscopy suggest that the five Cen pulsators form a rather homogeneous group of hydrogen-rich subdwarf O stars with effective temperatures of…

Pulsating hot O subdwarfs in Omega Cen: mapping a unique instability strip on the Extreme Horizontal Branch

S. K. Randall, A. Calamida, G. Fontaine +10

We present an extensive survey for rapid pulsators among Extreme Horizontal Branch (EHB) stars in omega Cen. The observations performed consist of nearly 100 hours of time-series p…
