Studying BH/NS/WDs with LAMOST

Jifeng Liu (NAOC)

The advent of the Large Sky Area Multiple Object fiber Spectroscopic Telescope
(LAMOST) provides a unique opportunity for studying the compact objects in the
Milky Way. We are carrying out a spectroscopic survey of a sample of UV-excess
sources, which will yield black hole (neutron star) binaries in the low state,
and many high mass accreting white dwarfs. Studies of these sources will
(hopefully) allow us to adddress the questions such as the missing small-mass
stellar black holes in the Milky Way, and the SN Ia progenitors.
