The subdwarf database: Released

This is the first public release of the Subdwarf Database, a compilation of data on hot subdwarf stars collected from the litterature. The database is based on the collection of hot subdwarf stars compiled by Kilkenny et al. (1988, SAAOC 12, 1), but broken down on it's original sources, and with additional data incorporated, such as photometric errors and quality flags on classifications.

Please note: This database is far from being complete. There are many papers not yet incorporated into the collection. If you are the author of a paper with data on hot subdwarf stars that you cannot find in this database, please send an electronic table with that data to me. Also, if you find any errors in the data or other problems, please notify me.
