Be objects are stars of B spectral type showing lines of the Balmer series in emission. The presence of these lines is attributed to the existence of an extended envelope, disk type, around them. Some stars are observed in both the Be and…
Two eclipsing binary systems UZ Lyr and BR Cyg are the semi-detached types whose secondary component fill its Roche lobe. Although radial velocity and light curves of these systems have already been investigated separately, both radial…
A phenomenological theory is suggested to explain the experimentally discovered "paramagnetic peculiarity" and the unconventional change of the energetic state of a layers of high T_{c} of Y-Ba-Cu-O in the vicinity of the phase transition.…
We review ways in which observations of the changing periods of pulsating variable stars can be used to detect and directly measure their evolution. We briefly describe the two main techniques of analysis -- (O-C) analysis and wavelet…
A coherent Ising machine (CIM) is known to deliver the low-energy states of the Ising model. Here, we investigate how well the CIM simulates the thermodynamic properties of a two-dimensional square-lattice Ising model. Assuming that the…
The present study collects 456 new times of maximum light of the classical Cepheid RT Aur, covering the period from 1897 to 2022. The O-C diagram resulting from these observations shows that the period given by the GCVS has to be corrected.…
The phase diagram of the O(n) model, in particular the special case $n=0$, is studied by means of transfer-matrix calculations on the loop representation of the O(n) model. The model is defined on the square lattice; the loops are allowed…
The first charge-coupled device photometric light curves in B, V, R${_c}$, and I${_c}$ bands of the short-period contact binary star OQ Cam are presented. Through analyzing the light curves with the Wilson-Devinney code, it is found that OQ…
A briefly formulated update of the recently published review [1] on the topic of multidimensional solitons (chiefly, in nonlinear optics and atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs)) is presented. The update briefly summarizes some notable…
The BTr and UBr satellites observed $\beta$ Lyrae from May to October 2016 to continuously monitor light-curve instabilities with the time resolution of about 100 mins. An instrumental problem affecting localized patches on the BTr CCD…
We present detailed systematic studies of structural transformations in thin liquid crystal films with the smectic-C to hexatic phase transition. For the first time all possible structures reported in the literature are observed for one…
Optical vortices (OVs) have emerged as a revolutionary concept in modern photonics, offering a unique method of manipulating light beyond conventional Gaussian beams. Despite their vast potential, phase topology stability remains…
In photometric observations, the flux averaged over the preset exposure time is usually used as the representation of an object's true flux at the middle of the exposure interval. For the study of transients and variables, it is also the…
EM Cygni is a Z Cam-subtype eclipsing dwarf nova. Its orbital period variations were reported in the past but the results were in conflict to each other while other studies allowed the possibility of no period variation. In this study we…
Long-term variations are well-known in Be X-ray binaries, and are attributed to non-orbital changes in the structure of the Be circumstellar (equatorial) disc. However, the timescales involved are so long (tens of days, to years) that…
The role of BEC for photons and neutral pions is briefly discussed and illustrated by means of new method of numerical modelling of BEC proposed by us recently.
Using K2, we recently discovered a new type of periodic photometric variability while analysing the light curves of members of Upper Sco (Stauffer \etal\ 2017). The 23 exemplars of this new variability type are all mid-M dwarfs, with short…
We searched for long-term period changes in the polar EK UMa using new optical data and archival X-ray/EUV data. An optical ephemeris was derived from data taken remotely with the MONET/N telescope and compared with the X-ray ephemeris…
The first photometric analysis of IR Cas was carried out based on the new observed BVRI light curves. The symmetric light curves and nearly flat secondary minimum indicate that very precise photometric results can be determined. We found…
We present the first detailed photometric characterization of TIC 470127886, a previously unstudied multi-periodic variable star discovered in TESS photometry. Analysis of 145,374 high-cadence observations spanning 696 days (944-day…
