Based on the high resolution spectral monitoring conducted at the 6-m BTA telescope, we study the optical spectrum of the high-latitude variable V534 Lyr. Heliocentric radial velocities Vr corresponding to the positions of all metal…
In this paper preliminary results are presented based on a study of the low and high resolution ultraviolet spectrum of the peculiar supergiant (post-AGB star) HD101584. By a comparison of the low resolution spectrum (1200-3200ang) with…
High-resolution optical spectroscopy was conducted for the metal-poor post-AGB star CC Lyr to determine its chemical abundances and spectral line profiles. Our standard abundance analysis confirms its extremely low metallicity ([Fe/H]<-3.5)…
The strongest absorption features with the lower-level excitation potentials $\chi_{\rm low}<1$ eV are found to be split in the high-resolution optical spectra of the post-AGB star V354 Lac taken in 2007--2008. Main parameters,…
We determine the surface lithium abundance of the eclipsing binary components in V 505 Per (HIP 10961), A(Li)=2.65+/-0.07 and 2.35+/-0.1, which supports the rather unexpected conclusion that their surface Li abundances differ. We find…
We report Johnson's UBVRI photometric and optical spectroscopic observations of a long period variable HP Lyr which up to now has been considered an eclipsing binary with a period of 140 days. The spectral type changes continually from A2-3…
Radio galaxies characteristically have strong Lya emission lines. However, a few have Lya equivalent widths that are substantially weaker in relation to other emission lines. One in particular was studied by Dey etal (1995), MG 1019+0535…
We present a detailed abundance study of 11 RR Lyrae ab-type variables: AS Vir, BS Aps, CD Vel, DT Hya, RV Oct, TY Gru, UV Oct, V1645 Sgr, WY Ant, XZ Aps, and Z Mic.High resolution and high S/N echelle spectra of these variables were…
Aim: We aim to study in detail the peculiar mineralogy and structure of the circumstellar environment of two binary post-AGB stars, EPLyr and HD52961. Both stars were selected from a larger sample of evolved disc sources observed with…
IY Lyr, historically misclassified as an eclipsing binary, is now established as a first-overtone RR Lyrae star (RRc star). Using multi-band photometry (ASAS-SN, ZTF, TESS, and our BVRI data), LAMOST spectroscopy, and Gaia astrometry, we…
Aims: To investigate the first high resolution optical spectrum of the B-type star, LS III +52 24, identified as the optical counterpart of the hot post-AGB candidate IRAS 22023+5249 (I22023). Methods: We carried out detailed…
To search for and study the instabilities in the atmospheres of selected post-AGB stars, we have performed a long-term high-resolution spectroscopy (R=60000) with the spectrograph NES of the 6-meter BTA telescope. Low-amplitude pulsations,…
Context. Late O-type stars at luminosities $\log L/L_\odot \lesssim 5.2$ show weak winds with mass-loss rates lower than 10$^{-8} M_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$. This implies that their photospheric layers are not strongly affected by the stellar wind.…
V583 Lyr is an extremely low mass ratio Algol-type binary with an orbital period of 11.2580 days. We determined an effective temperature of T_{eff1} = 9000 \pm 350 K from newly observed spectra, which might be an underestimate due to binary…
We present new UBV photometric observations (2009-2024) of the carbon-rich post-AGB star IRAS 22272+5435 (V354 Lac), combined with our data spanning over 30 years (1991-2024). The star shows pulsations with two closely spaced periods, 127…

We present the first high-resolution spectra for the eclipsing binary V404 Lyr showing $\gamma$ Dor pulsations, which we use to study its absolute properties. By fitting models to the disentangling spectrum of the primary star, we found…
We present new results from a study of high quality, red spectra of the massive binary star system HD 1383 (B0.5 Ib + B0.5 Ib). We determined radial velocities and revised orbital elements (P = 20.28184 +/- 0.0002 d) and made Doppler…
Stellar oscillations are an important tool to probe the interior of a star. Subdwarf B stars are core helium burning objects, but their formation is poorly understood as neither single star nor binary evolution can fully explain their…
