Stellar wind signatures in sdB stars?
U. Heber, P. F. L. Maxted, T. R. Marsh +2
Subdwarf B (sdB) stars form the blue end of the horizonal branch. Their peculiar atmospheric abundance patterns are due to diffusion processes. However, diffusion models fail to ex…
Stellar wind signatures in sdB stars?
U. Heber, P. F. L. Maxted, T. R. Marsh +2
Subdwarf B (sdB) stars form the blue end of the horizonal branch (EHB). Their peculiar atmospheric abundance patterns are due to diffusion processes. However, diffusion models fail…
Search for double degenerate progenitors of supernovae type Ia with SPY
R. Napiwotzki, H. Drechsel, U. Heber +13
We report on a large survey for double degenerate (DD) binaries as potential progenitors of type Ia supernovae with the UVES spectrograph at the ESO VLT (ESO SN Ia Progenitor surve…
New subdwarf B star periods
L. Morales-Rueda, P. F. L. Maxted, T. R. Marsh +1
Subdwarf B (sdB) stars are thought to be helium burning stars with low mass hydrogen envelopes. Several evolutionary paths have been proposed to explain the formation of these syst…
Searching for spiral shocks
L. Morales-Rueda, T. R. Marsh
Spiral shocks in cataclysmic variables (CVs) are the result of tidal interactions of the mass donor star with the accretion disc. Their study is fundamental for our understanding o…
