Further degenerate stars. X.
Abstract
This list of 51 further degenerate stars includes many faint red degenerates, as well as blue objects, selected by proper motion or color. Observations were made with the multichannel spectrophotometer and with higher-resolution linear sensors. Hydrogen lines are found down to temperatures of 7000 K. A pair containing two red degenerates has a newly measured parallax, leading to discussion of some evolutionary problems of wide double white dwarfs. One remarkably carbon-rich high-velocity star near 9000 K presents some astrophysical problems
