Precise, high-cadence, long-term records of stellar spectral variability at different temporal scales lead to better understanding of a wide variety of phenomena including stellar atmospheres and dynamos, convective motions, and rotational…

The stability of trionic excitations in zigzag carbon nanotubes has been estimated. A trion is shown to be unstable with respect to the ground excitonic state and stable with respect to the excited one. So, trions in nanotubes of this type…

A simplified theory of the telescopic oscillations in multiwalled carbon nanotubes is developed. The explicit expressions for the telescopic force constants (longitudinal rigidity) and the frequencies of telescopic oscillations are derived.…

About 30.5 days of nearly uninterrupted broadband photometry of the solar-type star Kappa1 Ceti, obtained with the MOST (Microvariability & Oscillations of STars) satellite, shows evidence for two large starspots with different rotation…

We analyse two ASCA observations of the highly eccentric O9III + B1III binary Iota Orionis obtained at periastron and apastron. Based on the assumption of a strong colliding winds shock between the stellar components, we expected to see…
