The third Gaia data release provides photometric time series covering 34 months for about 10 million stars. For many of those stars, a characterisation in Fourier space and their variability classification are also provided. This paper…
A survey for line profile variability in early A-type stars has been performed in order to detect nonradial pulsation signatures. The star HR 6139, with spectral type A2V and estimated T_eff=8800 K, shows evident line profile variations…
\textbf{B}lue \textbf{L}arge \textbf{A}mplitude \textbf{P}ulsators (BLAPs) are a type of variable star that has been identified relatively recently. They are characterized by their large amplitude, high gravity, and long periods (2-75…
We report the results of a high temporal resolution spectroscopic monitoring of the flare star AD Leo. During 4 nights, more than 600 spectra were taken in the optical range using the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) and the Intermediate…
A search for pulse signals was carried out in a new sky area included in the monitoring program for the search for pulsars and transients. Processing of several months data recorded in six frequency channels with a total bandwidth of 2.5…
Context. Modern space telescopes are currently providing high-precision light curves for a large fraction of the sky, such that many new variable stars are being discovered. However, some stars have periodic variability with periods of…
Following the discovery of blue large-amplitude pulsators (BLAPs) by the OGLE survey, additional hot, high-amplitude pulsating stars have been discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility. It has been proposed that all of these objects are…
We report on the analysis of high-precision space-based photometry of the roAp (rapidly oscillating Ap) stars HD 9289, HD 99563, and HD134214. All three stars were observed by the MOST satellite for more than 25 days, allowing unprecedented…
We analyze the frequencies of three known roAp stars, TIC 96315731, TIC 72392575, and TIC 318007796, using the light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). For TIC 96315731, the rotational and pulsational frequencies…
Altair is an A-type star known to have an appreciably oblate shape owing to its very fast rotation (~300 km/s). Despite of numerous publications on this star, its chemical abundances have been scarcely investigated so far, presumably…
Some of the rapidly oscillating (roAp) stars, have frequencies which are larger than the theoretical acoustic cut-off frequency. We have computed models and adiabatic frequencies for pulsating Ap stars with T(tau) laws based on Kurucz model…
Long-period radio transients (LPTs) are a recently identified phenomenon that challenge our current understanding of compact objects and coherent radio emission mechanisms. These objects emit radio pulses similar to those of pulsars, but at…
We have made high-resolution, high-sensitivity dynamic spectra of a sample of strong pulsars at 430 MHz with the Arecibo radiotelescope. For 4 pulsars we find faint but sharply delineated features in the secondary spectra. These are…
Homogeneous metallicities and continuous high-precision light curves play key roles in studying the pulsation properties of RR Lyrae stars. By cross-matching with LAMOST DR6, we have determined 7 and 50 Non-Blazhko RRab stars in the Kepler…
Excitation of radial oscillations in population I (X=0.7, Z=0.02) red supergiants is investigated using the solution of the equations of radiation hydrodynamics and turbulent convection. The core helium burning stars with masses 8M_odot <=…
Blue large-amplitude pulsators (BLAPs) make up a rare class of hot pulsating stars with effective temperatures of $\approx$30,000 K and surface gravities of 4.0 - 5.0 dex (cgs). The evolutionary origin and current status of BLAPs is not…
We have carried out a multi-site campaign to measure oscillations in the F5 star Procyon A. We obtained high-precision velocity observations over more than three weeks with eleven telescopes, with almost continuous coverage for the central…
Aql X-1 is the most prolific low mass X-ray binary transient hosting a neutron star. In this paper we focus on the return to quiescence following the 2010 outburst of the source. This decay was monitored thanks to 11 pointed observations…
We obtained four Chandra/ACIS-S observations beginning two weeks after the end of the November 2000 outburst of the neutron star (NS) transient Aql X-1. Over the five month span in quiescence, the X-ray spectra are consistent with thermal…
V1494 Aql (Nova Aql 1999 No. 2) was discovered on 2 December 1999. We obtained Chandra ACIS-I spectra on 15 April and 7 June 2000 which appear to show only emission lines. Our third observation, on 6 August, showed that its spectrum had…
