    • 3D kinematics of white dwarfs from the SPY project. II. 
      Pauli, E.-M.; Napiwotzki, R.; Heber, U.; Altmann, Martin; Odenkirchen, M. (EDP SCIENCES S A, 2006-02)
      We present the kinematics of a sample of 398 DA white dwarfs from the SPY project (ESO SN Ia Progenitor surveY) and discuss kinematic criteria for distinguishing of thin-disk, thick-disk, and halo populations. This is the ...
    • Is a binary fraction-age relation responsible for the lack of EHB binaries in globular clusters? 
      Moni Bidin, Christian; Catelan, M.; Altmann, Martin (EDP SCIENCES S A, 2008-03)
      Context. The recently-discovered lack of close binaries, among extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars in Galactic globular clusters, has thus far constituted a major puzzle, in view of the fact that blue subdwarf stars – ...
