Hot subdwarfs are hots stars with masses somewhat less than that of the Sun. ... They are known as sdB stars because their spectra are dominated by hydrogen lines. ... Normally, a red giant will switch on core helium burning without losingthe layers of hydrogen around the helium core. sdOB stars are related to sdB stars, possibly being the sdB stars which have completed core helium burning and are evolving to become white dwarfs. ... Such stars are known as PG1159 stars and DO white dwarfs. ...

... self-absorption - the absorption of light shining on an object by a process similar to that which produced the light originally; if a cloud emits less light than it absorbs from other clouds behind it, this net loss of light, termed self-absorption , causes the foreground cloud to appear darker than the background field (the term is from spectroscopy, where small absorption dips sometimes occur in larger emission lines, making the latter look as if it is absorbing part of itself) . ...
