We present HAWK-I J-band light curves of five late-type T dwarfs (T6.5-T7.5) with a typical duration of four hours, and investigate the evidence for quasi-periodic photometric variability on intra-night timescales. Our photometry reaches…

The X-ray source 1E 1207.4-5209 is a compact central object in the G296.5+10.0 supernova remnant. Its spin period of 424 ms, discovered with the Chandra X-ray Observatory, suggests that it is a neutron star. The X-ray spectrum of this…

We report extensive photometry of the dwarf nova KS UMa throughout its 2003 superoutburst till quiescence. During the superoutburst the star displayed clear superhumps with a mean period of Psh = 0.070092(23) days. In the middle stage of…

We present results from several years of fast optical photometry of 4U0614+091 (V1055 Orionis), a candidate ultracompact X-ray binary most likely consisting of a neutron star and a degenerate secondary. We find evidence for strong…

Celestial objects exhibit a wide range of variability in brightness at different wavebands. Surprisingly, the most common methods for characterizing time series in statistics -- parametric autoregressive modeling -- is rarely used to…

We have shown previously that a broad correlation between the peak radio luminosity and the variability time-scales, approximately L ~ t^5, exists for variable synchrotron emitting sources and that different classes of astrophysical source…

We present the analysis of the optical variability of the early, nitrogen-rich Wolf-Rayet (WR) star WR7. The analysis of multi-sector Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) light curves and high-resolution spectroscopic observations…

For the first time connection between the pulsation and modulation properties of RR Lyrae stars has been detected. Based on the available data it is found that the possible range of the modulation frequencies, i.e, the possible maximum…

We present an analysis of 4.5 years of high precision (0.1%) space-based photometric measurements of the Cepheid variable Polaris, obtained by the broad band Solar Mass Ejection Imager (SMEI) instrument on board the Coriolis satellite. The…

Combination frequencies are not solutions of the perturbed stellar structure equations. In dense power spectra from a light curve of a given multi-periodic pulsating star, they can compromise the mode identification in an asteroseismic…

A novel scheme for determining the pseudo-Stark splitting of optical lines has been suggested and tested in experiment. The scheme allows one to observe the beating of a photon echo waveform under conditions of overlap in time between a…

We observed an anomalously outbursting state of SU UMa which occurred in 1992. Time-resolved photometry revealed the presence of signals with a period of 0.0832 +/- 0.0019 d, which is 3.6 sigma longer than the orbital period (0.07635 d) of…

We present the results of a ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter observation of the variable radio star \ls. The source has a power law spectrum with photon index 1.1 +/- 0.3 and a luminosity of 5.9 x 10^{33} erg/s in the 0.1 -2.4…

High-dispersion IUE data encode significant information about aggregate line absorptions that cannot be conveniently extracted from individual spectra. We apply a new technique in which fluxes from each echelle order of a short wavelength…

The All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) provides long baseline (${\sim}4$ yrs) $V-$band light curves for sources brighter than V$\lesssim17$ mag across the whole sky. We produced V-band light curves for a total of ${\sim}61.5$…

Statistically simulated time series of wave parameters are required for many coastal and offshore engineering applications, often at the resolution of approximately one hour. Various studies have relied on autoregressive moving-average…

CU Vir has been the first main sequence star that showed regular radio pulses that persist for decades, resembling the radio lighthouse of pulsars and interpreted as auroral radio emission similar to that found in planets. The star belongs…

Periodic increases in luminosity arising from variable accretion rates have been predicted for some close pre-main sequence binary stars as they grow from circumbinary disks. The phenomenon is known as "pulsed accretion" and can affect the…

The search-volume corrected period distribution of contact binaries of the W UMa type appears to reflect primarily the constant number ratio of ~1/500 to the number of stars along the Main Sequence; there exist no evidence for angular…

We report on ASCA, RXTE, and archival observations of the high mass X-ray binary pulsar 4U1907+09. Spectral measurements of the absorption and flux were made at all phases of the X-ray pulsar orbit, including the first spectral measurements…
