Cool white dwarfs in the SDSS
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
A reduced proper motion diagram utilising Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry and astrometry and USNO-B plate astrometry is used to separate cool white dwarf candidates from metal-weak, high-velocity, main-sequence Population II stars (subdwarfs) in the SDSS Data Release 2 imaging area.
Description
Follow-up spectroscopy using the Hobby-Eberly Telescope, the MMT, and the McDonald 2.7m telescope is used to demonstrate that the white dwarf and subdwarf loci separate cleanly in the reduced proper motion diagram and that the contamination by subdwarfs is small near the cool white dwarf locus.
