TL;DR: In this paper, a catalogue of white dwarf candidates selected from the second data release of Gaia (DR2) is presented, consisting of 486641 stars with calculated probability of being a white dwarf (PWD) for all Gaia sources that passed the initial selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hot subluminous stars
TL;DR: Spectroscopic analyses of blue horizontal branch stars, subluminous B- and O-stars are reviewed in this paper, where the resulting atmospheric parameters and abundances are used to obtain constraints on the evolutionary status of different classes of stars.
Infrared Signatures of Disrupted Minor Planets at White Dwarfs
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented IRAC and MIPS photometric observations for 20 white dwarfs with T eff 20, 000 K and metal-contaminated photospheres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hot subluminous stars
TL;DR: In this paper, the mass distribution in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram of He-rich vs. He-poor hot subdwarf stars of the globular clusters omega Cen and NGC~2808 differ from that of their field counterparts.

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Technical Summary
TL;DR: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) as mentioned in this paper provides the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and non-luminous matter in the Universe: a photometrically and astrometrically calibrated digital imaging survey of pi steradians above about Galactic latitude 30 degrees in five broad optical bands.

Catalogue of cataclysmic binaries, low-mass X-ray binaries and related objects (Seventh edition)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a comprehensive selection of the relevant recent literature, including a list of references to published finding charts for 635 of the 656 objects, and a cross-reference list of alias object designations.

A new technique for calculations of binary stellar evolution, with application to magnetic braking
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified stellar evolution code is proposed to calculate the evolution of close binary systems with collapsed binaries and mass-losing secondaries, which is a more general, but still simplified, technique for calculating the evolution.
