We present the latest results from our analysis of time resolved spectroscopy of PG 1605+072, a high amplitude pulsating sdB star. The star is believed to have evolved off the extreme horizontal branch, and it is uncertain whether it…
We present the analysis of time-resolved spectroscopy of the pulsating sdB star PG1605+072. From our main observing run of 16 nights we have detected velocity variations at 5 frequencies that correspond to those found in photometry. Based…
The subdwarf B star PG1605+072, with an unusually low log g ~ 5.3, shows a high number of non-radial pulsation modes, making it a promising candidate for asteroseismology. This could allow probing the star's interior to gain important…
We report the detection of velocity variations in the pulsating sdB star, PG 1605+072. Oscillations are detected at the same frequencies found from photometry and have amplitudes of up to 14 km/s for H$\beta$. The strongest oscillation…
In the first spectroscopic campaign for a PG 1716 variable (or long-period pulsating subdwarf B star), we succeeded in detecting velocity variations due to g-mode pulsations at a level of 1.0-1.5 km/s.The observations were obtained during…
Stellar oscillations are an important tool to probe the interior of a star. Subdwarf B stars are core helium burning objects, but their formation is poorly understood as neither single star nor binary evolution can fully explain their…

PG 1605+072 has unique pulsational properties amongst the members of the new class of pulsating sdB (EC 14026) stars. It has the longest periods and the richest, most puzzling frequency spectrum (55 periods). We present a quantitative…
We present the detection and analysis of line index variations in the pulsating sdB star PG 1605+072. We have found a strong dependence of line index amplitude on Balmer line order, with high-order Balmer line amplitudes up to 10 times…
We present observations and analysis of time-series spectroscopy and photometry of the pulsating subdwarf B star PG 1219+534 (KY UMa). Subdwarf B stars are blue horizontal branch stars which have shed most of their hydrogen envelopes.…

We have obtained time-series spectra for the pulsating hot subdwarf (sdB) PG1605+072. Previous time-series photometry of this star has shown maximum amplitude variations of about 0.1 mag and at least 50 periods. The pulsator has the largest…
The recently discovered new class of sdB pulsators (sdBV) offers a powerful possibility for the investigation of their interior and thus their evolutionary history. The first step towards applying asteroseismologic tools is the…
PG 0014+067 is one of the most promising pulsating subdwarf B stars for seismic analysis, as it has a rich pulsation spectrum. The richness of its pulsations, however, poses a fundamental challenge to understanding the pulsations of these…
