UV and optical studies of the physical properties of DAO white dwarfs
An investigation into the physical properties and evolutionary status of DAO white dwarfs has been conducted, using optical and far-UV observations. Out of the 22 objects for which optical data were obtained, the spectrum of only one is best fitted by a stratified H+He composition model; this may be...
