We present the first results of an ongoing intra-day variability (IDV) flux density monitoring program of 107 blazars, which were selected from a sample of RadioAstron space very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) targets. The~IDV…

A method for obtaining asteroseismological information of a Gamma Doradus oscillating star showing at least three pulsation frequencies is presented. This method is based on a first-order asymptotic g-mode expression, in agreement with the…

We report evidence for a new class of variable star, which we dub millimagnitude RR Lyrae (mmRR). From K2 observations of the globular cluster M4, we find that out of 24 horizontal branch stars not previously known to be RR Lyrae variables,…

We report the detection of velocity variations in the pulsating sdB star, PG 1605+072. Oscillations are detected at the same frequencies found from photometry and have amplitudes of up to 14 km/s for H$\beta$. The strongest oscillation…

We present the first in a series of papers describing the X-ray properties of a sample of 18 Seyfert 1 galaxies, using data obtained by \asca. The imaging data reveal a number of serendipitous hard X-ray sources in some source fields, but…
