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…
A halo blue straggler on a highly eccentric retrograde orbit
A. Tillich, N. Przybilla, R. -D. Scholz +1
Blue straggler, which are stars that appear to be younger than they should be, are an important population of unusual stars in both stellar clusters and the halo field of the Galax…
Hip 63510C, Hip 73786B, and nine new isolated high proper motion T dwarf candidates from UKIDSS DR6 and SDSS DR7
R. -D. Scholz
Aims: Completing the poorly known substellar census of the solar neighbourhood, especially with respect to the coolest brown dwarfs, will lead to a better understanding of failed s…
ULAS J141623.94134836.3 - a faint common proper motion companion of a nearby L dwarf. Serendipitous discovery of a cool brown dwarf in UKIDSS DR6
R. -D. Scholz
New near-infrared large-area sky surveys (e.g. UKIDSS, CFBDS, WISE) go deeper than 2MASS and aim at detecting brown dwarfs lurking in the Solar neighbourhood which are even fainter…
