Toward 3D orbits of wide sdO/B binaries I. Six composite systems spatially resolved with VLTI/GRAVITY
K. Deshmukh, S. Geier, H. Sana +7
The authors use VLTI/GRAVITY long‑baseline interferometry to spatially resolve six wide hot subdwarf (sdO/B) + main‑sequence binary systems, providing precise separations that will…
Studying hot evolved stars with ultraviolet spectroscopy
Stephan Geier, Nicole Reindl, Matti Dorsch +7
Hot evolved stars are key objects to reconstruct the various evolutionary pathways of Sun-like stars, to probe binary interactions and the physics of supernovae. They serve as powe…
Evidence for neutron capture in heavy-metal hot subdwarfs: Far-UV spectroscopy of EC22536-5304 and LSIV-14 116
M. Dorsch, C. S. Jeffery, J. Deprince +8
Most hot subdwarfs (sdO/B) are low-mass core-helium-burning stars formed through binary interaction. A subgroup of intermediate He-rich sdOBs shows extreme heavy-metal (Z>30) enric…
Hot subdwarf stars from the Hamburg Quasar Survey
Ulrich Heber, Lennard Kufleitner, Matti Dorsch +4
Hot subluminous stars (sdO/B) are evolved low mass stars originating from red giants that lost their envelope almost entirely. The multitude of observed phenomena imply that severa…
A 500 pc volume-limited sample of hot subluminous stars II. Atmospheric parameters, mass distribution, and kinematics
H. Dawson, M. Dorsch, S. Geier +30
We present a quantitative spectroscopic and kinematic analysis of a volume-complete sample of hot subluminous stars within 500 pc of the Sun, assembled using accurate parallax meas…
A slowly pulsating run-away B star at high Galactic latitude ejected from a spiral arm
Ulrich Heber, Maximilian Halenke, Aakash Bhat +1
We report the discovery of the young B6V run-away star LAMOST J083323.18+430825.4, 2.5\,kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determ…
