We use photometry from the Kepler Mission to study oscillations in gamma Doradus stars. Some stars show remarkably clear sequences of g modes and we use period echelle diagrams to measure period spacings and identify rotationally split…
We conducted a survey of nearby binary systems composed of main sequence stars of spectral types F and G in order to improve our understanding of the hierarchical nature of multiple star systems. Using Robo-AO, the first robotic adaptive…
We present higher-order multiplicity results for 60 solar-type spectroscopic binaries based on 0.75 micron imaging data taken by the Robotic Adaptive Optics system (Robo-AO) at the Kitt Peak 2.1m telescope. Our contrast curves show…
We present multiwavelength broadband photometry and V, I time resolved photometry for two variable bright stars in the SMC, OGLE004336.91-732637.7 (SMC-SC3) and OGLE004633.76-731204.3 (SMC-SC4). The light curves span 12 years and show…
We report a new subdwarf B (sdB) pulsator, PG1142-037, discovered during the first full-length campaign of K2, the two-gyro mission of the Kepler space telescope. Fourteen periodicities have been detected between 0.9 and 2.5 hours with…
We report results of a nine-year monitoring effort on the unusual classical Be with a robotic ground-based (APT) B,V-filtered telescope as well as simultaneous observations in 2004 November with this instrument and the RXTE (X-ray)…
By combining ground-based spectrographic observations of variability in the chromospheric emission from Sun-like stars with the variability seen in their eigenmode frequencies, it is possible to relate the changes observed at the surfaces…
The gamma-ray binary LS I +61 303 is composed of a Be star and a compact companion orbiting in an eccentric orbit. Variable flux modulated with the orbital period of ~26.5 d has been detected from radio to very high-energy gamma rays. In…
We report on the results of an extended optical spectroscopic monitoring campaign on the early-type B supergiant HD64760 (B0.5Ib) designed to probe the deep-seated origin of spatial wind structure. This new study is based on high-resolution…
We reported a cyclic variation of $O-C$ diagram with a semi-amplitude of 0.0033 days and a period of 1.05 years for the pulsating eclipsing binary HZ Dra. The cyclic variation can be explained by the light travel-time effect via the…
HD 176465 is a binary system whose both components are solar-like pulsators and whose oscillation frequencies were observed by the \kepler\ mission. In this paper we have modeled the asteroseismic and spectroscopic data of the stars, and…
We present the apsidal motion and light-curve analyses of 21 eccentric eclipsing binaries located in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Most of these systems have never been studied before, hence their orbital and physical properties as well as…
Aims: As part of our observational projects at the La Silla Danish 1.54-meter telescope, we aim to measure the precise times of minimum light for eccentric eclipsing binaries in the Large Magellanic Cloud, needed for accurate determination…
A detailed analysis of more than 800 electronic high-resolution spectra of gamma Cas, which were obtained during a time interval of over 6000 days (16.84 yrs) at several observatories, documents the smooth variations in the density and/or…
