BBC - Southampton Music - Showcase - Subgiant Southampton based Subgiant have been around for a few years, working in a loosely defined cross-over genre, mixing samples and decks with live guitars and bass. Subgiant could probably add a bit of Country and Western if they wanted to - and they'd still be able to make it work. Subgiant cranked up the volume, but held on to the laid-back atmosphere. www.bbc.co.uk /southampton/music/showcase/subgiant.shtml   (486 words)

subgiant A star that has stopped fusing hydrogen in its core and has begun to evolve off the main sequence, increasing in size and luminosity, on its way to becoming a red giant. Subgiants produce energy in a hydrogen-burning shell that surrounds the core. Subgiants are of smaller radius and lower luminosity than normal giant stars and lie between the main sequence and giant region of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. www.daviddarling.info /encyclopedia/S/subgiant.html   (154 words)

Online Encyclopedia and Dictionary - Subgiant star Subgiant star is a class of stars that are brighter than normal main sequence (dwarf) stars, but not as bright as true giant stars. They are believed to be stars that are ceasing or already ceased fusing hydrogen in their cores and starting to swell up to become true giant stars. Subgiant stars have larger diameters and lower temperature than stars of similar mass in the main sequence. www.fact-archive.com /encyclopedia/Subgiant   (101 words)

HOA: HOA Materials The K2 subgiant and the B8 primary are in a very close orbit. The K2 subgiant has expanded to fill its Roche lobe, a teardrop-shaped volume of space in which its gravity is strong enough to hold onto its loose atmospheric material. As the K2 subgiant tries to expand further, a thin but powerful stream of gas spills from the point of the Roche lobe and crashes down onto the 138 primary star. hoa.aavso.org /algol.html   (1181 words)

System Codes G04* In particular, a class T gas supergiant, a red subgiant star (G041), and a red subdwarf star are all in thrall to this star, all in very stable orbits despite enormous distances separating the three objects from the main star. This red subgiant star is the largest companion of G040, orbiting the white supergiant at a distance of almost a full light-year. Two nearby stars, G049 and an orange subdwarf, are in extended orbit around this red subgiant, though the orange subdwarf's orbit appears to be quite unstable and decaying over the course of several million years. www.jestertrek.com /m64/mainmap/systems/g04.html   (1110 words)

Giant and subgiant stars within 100 ly Subgiant stars are evolving off, or will "soon" leave, the "main sequence" because they are running out of hydrogen to sustain fusion at their cores. When the star exhausts its core hydrogen and begins to burn hydrogen in a shell around a growing helium core, it brightens and expands and becomes a "subgiant," during which its habitable zone moves outward with the increased heat radiated.

Subgiant   (Site not responding. Last check: ) They are believed to be stars that are ceasing or already ceased fusing hydrogen in their cores. At the start of the subgiant phase (such as a star like Procyon A) the diameter and brightness have increased, but the star has yet to cool down or change color significantly. Later subgiants that are closer to becoming true giants have larger diameters and lower temperature than stars of similar mass in the main sequence. society.abcworld.net /Subgiant.html   (161 words)

AZ - SciDAC Type Ia/Companion Interactions However, this requires understanding the effect of the impact of the supernova shell on different companion stars to predict the amount of mass stripped and its distribution in velocity and solid angle for the types of binary scenarios that have been proposed as Type Ia progenitor models. For each scenario, we explore the hydrodynamics of the supernova-secondary interaction, calculate the amount of stellar material stripped from the secondary and the kick delivered by the impact, and construct the velocity and solid angle distributions of the stripped material. We find that the main sequence and subgiant companions lose 0.15-0.17 solar masses as a result of the impact of the supernova shell, $15\%$ of their mass. zenith.as.arizona.edu /~burrows/SNIa_comp.html   (811 words)

Figure 9   (Site not responding. Last check: ) Dots, circles and squares indicate binaries containing a white dwarf and a main-sequence star, an early subgiant, and a horizontal branch star, respectively. A subgiant spends most of its time at the bottom of the giant branch where its radius is smaller than that of a horizontal-branch star, for this reason the majority of the tidal binaries with a subgiant have a relatively small semi-major axis. The majority of tidal binaries are born with zero eccentricity and a short orbital period. aa.springer.de /papers/7328001/2300143/figure9.htm   (129 words)

Algol-Type Binary Systems Most Algol binaries are characterized by their early A or B spectral type main-sequence primary star and late G or K spectral type subgiant. As the loser (subgiant) continued to expand as it evolved, the mass transfer process reduced its mass. In Chapter VI the Doppler tomogram of KU Cygni will be interpreted in order to understand the velocity position of the emitting regions, as well as nature of interactions between the mass-transfer stream and the outer edge of the disk. mintaka.sdsu.edu /faculty/quyen/node11.html   (1467 words)

Essays Page A subclass of eclipsing binary stars, named after Algol, where the brighter and more massive star is still on the main sequence while the less massive companion has evolved more and has become a subgiant. It is explained (Crawford 1955) as a result of extensive mass transfer: the now less-massive star originally contained most of the system's mass, and it evolved rapidly beyond the main sequence. They thus have a light curve characterized by deep primary minima when the dim subgiant eclipses the bright main-sequence star, alternating with scarcely detectable secondary minima when the subgiant is eclipsed. www.fofweb.com /Subscription/Science/Helicon.asp?SID=2&iPin=ffdastron0080   (222 words)

Subgiant + exmaark + Floodshock @ Bar Oz, Reading Subgiant are a three piece outfit who combined synths, laptop manipulation, bass, drums and turntables to produce a soundscape somewhere in the region of er, struggling here a bit, they just do what they say on the tin really, lots of bits and pieces, mixed up and served. Subgiant did a lot of things which were quite good ideas.

Subgiant + exmaark + Floodshock @ Bar Oz, Reading Mike: The first band of the night were Subgiant, an electronica band who mixed up live drums, bass and synths with a DJ/scratching and backing beats and loops. I felt that Subgiant sort of did look like a 'real' band and they seemed to be enjoying themselves which is always better to watch that misunderstood guitar bands who look at the floor all the way through the set. Something like that, like Subgiant, was more what I was hoping for from the electronica acts. www.josaka.com /Reviews/2004/BarOz060504.htm   (1564 words)

Subgiant - Blissfields Records subgiant is about sound, it's about being on stage and feeling that push of energy from the PA, it's about the cavernous depth of a bassline against the scratch of vinyl. Subgiant were formed four years ago as a four piece dub band, but then the electronics took over and subgiant was reduced to two, Olly on samplers, synths, electronics, guitar and bass, and Dan on decks, scratching, effects and samplers. But it's live that subgiant really work, listening to them on CD just isn't the same. www.blissfieldsrecords.co.uk /subgiant.php   (205 words)

A stars within 100 light-years At least 76 stars of spectral type "A" (not including white dwarf stellar remnants) are currently believed to be located within 100 light-years or (or 30.7 parsecs) of Sol. Of those stars, astronomers believe that five have evolved out of the main sequence into giant stars, while an additional 17 or so may be subgiants (more on nearby giants and subgiants). Four A-type stars are the most luminous stars located within Sol's immediate neighborhood (within 10 parsecs or 32.6 light-years): Sirius A, Altair, Fomalhaut, and Vega. www.solstation.com /stars3/100-as.htm   (617 words)

[No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: ) We have therefore made an exploratory study of the usefulness of subgiant branch stars for galactic evolution. The subgiant ages are more accurate than those of both giants and dwarfs, with the surprise that traces of CN cycling may appear already on the subgiant branch. www.obs-nice.fr /seminaire-vert/Abstract2004/S-18-06-04.html   (141 words)

Subgiant - Wychwood review Live drums, bass and a mass of electronics all spun together to make a dizzying dance beat that really energised the crowd. So much so, I was supposed to be leaving to drive home, but kept running back to catch more, noticing even my sober friends had got happily confuzzled by the Subgiant music-mental spaghetti. A great act to end the festival, when we left they were still playing, I hope they continued to delight the crowd long into the night to make up for having to start with an empty tent. www.efestivals.co.uk /festivals/wychwood/2007/reviews-subgiant.shtml   (266 words)

hr 2622 Monocerotis While HR 2622 Monocerotis is spectroscopically classed as a giant- subgiant, which would make it rather unusual for planet discovery, it has the characteristics of an ordinary hydrogen-fusing dwarf (or possibly subgiant). The circle shows the location of the class G giant-subgiant (?) star HR 2622, found in the constellation Like many of the stars that host planets, HR 2622 is metal-rich, with an iron abundance almost 60 percent greater than the solar value. www.astro.uiuc.edu /~kaler/sow/hr2622.html   (207 words)

Procyon   (Site not responding. Last check: ) A white class F (F5) subgiant-dwarf, Procyon radiates with the power of 6.9 Suns from a somewhat warmer surface of 6530 Kelvin. From these parameters we find a mass of 1.4 solar and see that indeed (true to the star's subgiant status) that it is about to give up core hydrogen fusion as it prepares to become a much cooler and brighter subgiant (the star's age around three billion years). With a radius of 2.1 times that of the Sun and an equatorial rotation speed of at least 3.2 kilometers per second, Procyon's rotational period could be as long as 33 days. www.astro.uiuc.edu /~kaler/sow/procyon.html   (417 words)

An Eccentric Hot Jupiter Orbiting the Subgiant HD 185269 Photometric observations demonstrate that the star is constant to +/-0.0001 mag on the radial velocity period, strengthening our interpretation of a planetary companion. This planet was detected as part of our radial velocity survey of evolved stars located on the subgiant branch of the H-R diagram--also known as the Hertzsprung Gap. These stars, which have masses between 1.2 and 2.5 solar masses, play an important role in the investigation of the frequency of extrasolar planets as a function of stellar mass. www.adsabs.harvard.edu /abs/2006astro.ph..8035A   (175 words)

[2.04] The Consumption of Giant Planets by Subgiant Stars   (Site not responding. Last check: ) The evolutionary state of the star affects the depth to which the giant star penetrates before evaporating, the amount of dilution or burning of the planet's chemical contaminants, and the disturbance of the star's envelope. In this study, we will look at observable consequences of star-planet interactions (Siess & Livio 1999a,b) while the star is in the subgiant phase --- particularly lithium abundances observed in giant stars, stellar rotation, and infrared excesses. We would like to thank Compaq for supplying the computer hardware that was used to carry out this project. www.aas.org /publications/baas/v32n2/aas196/471.htm   (195 words)

Subgiant Sun   (Site not responding. Last check: ) Many people have seen images of the Sun as a red giant, baking the Earth to a cinder many billions of years from now. However, what you don’t often see are images which show the Sun at an intermediate stage in its life — the subgiant phase. At this point in time, about 6 billion years from now, the Sun will be about two or three times larger than the star we know, and many times brighter. www.space-art.co.uk /html/stars/subgiant.html   (119 words)

Lives and Deaths of Stars The gas envelope surrounding the core puffs outward under the action of the extra outward pressure. As the star begins to expand it becomes a subgiant and then a red giant. At the bloated out surface, the increased amount of energy is spread out over a larger area so each square centimeter will be cooler. www.astronomynotes.com /evolutn/s5.htm   (1009 words)

ChView - THE DATA FILES Where differing spectral types and luminosity classes were assigned to a star by recent catalogues, a range is indicated (e.g., F8-G0V-IV) to avoid the loss of possibly useful information -- for example, indicating variability or subgiant pulsation rather than simple observational error or the imprecision of older equipment and methods. However, the spectral type of 92 late-type dwarfs (K5-M8) visible from the northern hemisphere and believed to be located within 26 ly (8 parsecs) -- plus another nine suspected nearby dwarfs -- were revised to a standard system presented in 1994 (Henry et al). On the other hand, stars lacking luminosity class information that are believed to be located farther away than 100 ly were not given a default designation, since they include many FGK stars which may be subgiants or even more highly evolved, giant and supergiant stars. members.nova.org /~sol/chview/chv4.htm   (1721 words)
