The orbits of subdwarf B + main-sequence binaries. I: The sdB+G0 system PG 1104+243

J. Vos, R. H. Östensen, P. Degroote +18

The predicted orbital period histogram of an sdB population is bimodal with a peak at short (< 10 days) and long (> 250 days) periods. Observationally, there are many short-period…

Metal Abundances in Hot DO White Dwarfs

K. Werner, T. Rauch, E. Ringat +1

The relatively high abundance of carbon in the hot DO white dwarf RE0503-289 indicates that it is a descendant of a PG1159 star. This is corroborated by the recent detection of the…

IrOnIc: How to Consider Hundreds of Millions of Iron-Group Lines in NLTE Model-Atmosphere Calculations

Ellen Ringat

Iron-group elements have a very high number of atomic levels and an overwhelming number of spectral lines. No NLTE model-atmosphere code can cope with these in a classical way. A s…

Quality Control for Theoretical Data in the Virtual Observatory: Establishing Benchmark Tests for Synthetic Spectra

Thomas Rauch, Ellen Ringat

The Virtual Observatory (VO) provides access to both, data and theory. Quality control is a general problem and the VO user needs partly some experience to judge the reliability of…

Spectral Analysis via the Virtual Observatory: The Service Theossa

Ellen Ringat, Thomas Rauch, Klaus Werner

In the framework of the Virtual Observatory, the newly developed service TheoSSA provides access to theoretical stellar spectral-energy distributions. In a pilot phase, this servic…

Metal-Abundance Peculiarities in the sdOB Star EC11481-2303: A Progress Report

Ellen Ringat, Thomas Rauch

Spectral analyses of extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars indicate a trend to supersolar heavy-metal abundances that is increasing with effective temperature. The sdOB EC11481-230…
