RV Tauri variable stars are pulsating evolved stars that are identified by a characterizing feature in their light curves: alternating deep and shallow minima. Many RV Tauri variable stars were originally classified decades ago using visual…
The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) was a five-year observational survey conducted at Las Campanas Observatory that obtained, among other things, high-quality light curves of ~100 low-redshift Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). Presented here is…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is making a multi-colour, three dimensional map of the nearby Universe. The survey is in two parts. The first part is imaging one quarter of the sky in five colours from the near ultraviolet to the near…

Photometry from the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN), along with the AAVSO VSTAR time-series analysis package has been used to study the pulsational properties of 31 R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars. Periods have been derived…
We present a well-defined and characterized all-sky sample of classical Cepheids in the Milky Way, obtained by combining two time-domain all-sky surveys: Gaia DR2 (Gaia Collaboration et al. 2018) and ASAS-SN (Shappee et al. 2014). We first…
The All Sky Automated Survey (ASAS) is monitoring all sky to about 14 mag with a cadence of about 1 day; it has discovered about 10^5 variable stars, most of them new. The instrument used for the survey had aperture of 7 cm. A search for…
Pulsar search with time-domain observation is very computationally expensive and data volume will be enormous with the next generation telescopes such as the Square Kilometre Array. We apply artificial neural networks (ANNs), a machine…
