Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo A Bayesian Approach to Statistical Mechanics
Thomas Amby Ottosen
Since the middle of the 1940's scientists have used Monte Carlo (MC) simulations to obtain information about physical processes. This has proved a accurate and and reliable method…
Three ways to solve the orbit of KIC11558725: a 10 day beaming sdB+WD binary with a pulsating subdwarf
J. H. Telting, R. H. Østensen, A. S. Baran +16
The recently discovered subdwarf B (sdB) pulsator KIC11558725 features a rich g-mode frequency spectrum, with a few low-amplitude p-modes at short periods, and is a promising targe…
GALEX J201337.6+092801: The lowest gravity subdwarf B pulsator
Roy H Østensen, Peter I Pápics, Raquel Oreiro +8
We present the recent discovery of a new subdwarf B variable (sdBV), with an exceptionally low surface gravity. Our spectroscopy of J20136+0928 places it at Teff = 32100 +/- 500, l…
First Kepler results on compact pulsators VI. Targets in the final half of the survey phase
R. H. Østensen, R. Silvotti, S. Charpinet +29
We present results from the final six months of a survey to search for pulsations in white dwarfs and hot subdwarf stars with the Kepler spacecraft. Spectroscopic observations are…
Massive unseen companions to hot faint underluminous stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) - Analysis of seven close subdwarf B binaries
S. Geier, P. F. L. Maxted, R. Napiwotzki +12
The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding hot subdwarf stars with massive compact companions like massive white dw…
First Kepler results on compact pulsators I. Survey target selection and the first pulsators
R. H. Østensen, R. Silvotti, S. Charpinet +25
We present results from the first two quarters of a survey to search for pulsations in compact stellar objects with the Kepler spacecraft. The survey sample and the various methods…
