Hydrogen-deficient star a faint blue star in 1994 to a yellow supergiant in 1996. One proposed mechanism for this migration is the final helium flash scenario. He-sdB are subdwarfs with class B spectra with broader than usual H, HeI, and HeII lines. JL 87 in 1991 was the first He-sdB star to be reported. Since then this class of stars has been shown to have a wide range of hydrogen-to-helium ratios. Compact He-sdO stars have class O spectra, are typically nitrogen-rich, and may or may not be carbon-rich. Low-gravity He-sdO stars overlap with their compact cousins, but have lower surface gravity.

Water gas of the carbon dioxide formed when carbon monoxide reacts with water. Water gas Water gas is a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen produced from synthesis gas. Synthesis gas is a useful product, but requires careful handling due to its flammability and the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. The water-gas shift reaction can be used to reduce the carbon monoxide while producing additional hydrogen, resulting in water gas. Synthesis gas is made by passing steam over a red-hot carbon fuel such as coke: The reaction is endothermic, so the fuel must be continually re-heated to keep the reaction going. In
