Identifying and characterising the population of hot sub-luminous stars with multi-colour MeerLICHT data

P. Ranaivomanana, C. Johnston, P. J. Groot +9

Colour-magnitude diagrams reveal a population of blue (hot) sub-luminous objects with respect to the main sequence. These hot sub-luminous stars are the result of evolutionary proc…
