We present more than 1000-day long photometry of EY Draconis in BV(RI)C passbands. The changes in the light curve are caused by the spottedness of the rotating surface. Modelling of the spotted surface shows that there are two large active…

Observations of early-type M stars suggest that there are two characteristic cycle times, one of order one year for fast rotators ($P_{\rm rot} < 1$ day) and another of order four years for slower rotators. For a sample of fast-rotating…

Using data of fast-rotating active dwarf stars in the Kepler database, we perform time-frequency analysis of the light curves in order to search for signs of activity cycles. We use the phenomenon that the active region latitudes vary with…

Using publicly available gamma-rays data from the Fermi satellite and the Fermitools package, we constructed 867-day light curves of Sagittarius A* to search for potential periodicities from 2008 to 2024. By applying statistical and…

We present optical spectroscopy of 710 solar neighborhood stars collected over twenty years to catalog chromospheric activity and search for stellar activity cycles. The California Legacy Survey stars are amenable to exoplanet detection…

We analyse a light curve of the symbiotic star BF Cyg, covering 114 years of its photometric history. The star had a major outburst around the year 1894. Since then the mean optical brightness of the system is in steady decline, reaching…

We report the identification of cyclical changes in the orbital period of the eclipsing cataclysmic variable HT Cas. We measured new white dwarf mid-eclipse timings and combined with published measurements to construct an…

We present rotation periods for thousands of active stars in the Kepler field derived from Q3 data. In most cases a second period close to the rotation period was detected, which we interpreted as surface differential rotation (DR). Active…

We present a detailed analysis of surface inhomogeneities on the K1-type sub-giant component of the rapidly rotating eclipsing binary KIC 11560447, using high-precision Kepler light curves spanning nearly four years, corresponding to about…

Aims: We aim to measure the starspot rotation periods of active stars in the Kepler field as a function of spectral type and to extend reliable rotation measurements from F-, G-, and K-type to M-type stars. Methods: Using the Lomb-Scargle…

We have searched for stellar activity cycles in late low mass M dwarfs (M0--M6) located in the TESS north and south continuous viewing zones using data from sectors 1--61 (Cycle 1 to part way through Cycle 5). We utilise TESS-SPOC data…

We reanalyzed the c-type RR Lyrae star BE Dor (MACHO 5.4644.8, OGLE-LMC-RRLYR-06002) that had been discovered to show cyclic period changes. The photometric data of several sky surveys (DASCH, MACHO, OGLE, ASAS-SN, and TESS) were used for…

The rotation period of a star is an important quantity that provides insight into its structure and state. For stars with surface features like starspots, their periods can be inferred from brightness variations as these features move…

The Mount Wilson Ca HK survey revealed magnetic activity variations in a large sample of solar-type stars with timescales ranging from 2.5 to 25 years. This broad range of cycle periods is thought to reflect differences in the rotational…

In this study, we investigate the period changes of eight short-period Type II Cepheids of the BL Her subtype, i.e., with periods in the 1-4 day range. The $O-C$ diagrams for these stars are constructed using all suitable observational data…

We aim to detect activity cycles in young main-sequence stars, analogous to the 11-year solar cycle, using combined photometric survey data. This research will enhance our understanding of how cycle periods relate to rotation rates in…

We report the identification of cyclical changes in the orbital period of the eclipsing dwarf novae V2051 Ophiuchi and V4140 Sagitarii. We used sets of white dwarf mid-eclipse timings to construct observed-minus-calculated diagrams…

Temporal analysis of INTEGRAL/IBIS data has revealed a 5.7195\pm0.0007 day periodicity in the supergiant fast X-ray transient (SFXT) source AX J1845.0-0433, which we interpret as the orbital period of the system. The new-found knowledge of…

The star CoRoT102781750 reveals a puzzle, showing a very complex and altering variation in different `CoRoT colours'. We established without doubt that more than a single star was situated within the CoRoT mask. Using a search for…

Studies of the rotation-activity relation of late-type stars are essential to enhance our understanding of stellar dynamos and angular momentum evolution. We study the rotation-activity relation with K2 for M dwarfs where it is especially…
