We present the results of time-resolved photometry, abundance analysis and Doppler imaging of an Ap star, HD 100357. The {\it TESS} photometry revealed rotational modulation with a period of 1.6279247 days. Upon inspecting the residuals…
The new photometric data on pulsating Ap star HD~27463 obtained recently with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (\textit{TESS}) are analysed to search for variability. Our analysis shows that HD~27463 exhibits two types of…
We report the analysis of high-precision space-based photometric and high-resolution spectroscopic observations of HD 180347. The high-quality light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) under sectors 14, 15, and 26…
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 ${\sim}61.5$…
In this paper, we present TESS photometry and high-resolution spectra of the short-period Algol EW Boo. We obtained double-lined radial velocities (RVs) from the time-series spectra and measured the effective temperature of the primary star…
HD~63401 is known magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) star that shows a slow rotation and probably possesses a hydrodynamically stable stellar atmosphere. In the latter case the atomic diffusion mechanism enforced by the magnetic field can…
We present our discovery of pulsational radial-velocity variations in the cool Ap star HD 75445, an object spectroscopically similar to the bright, rapidly-oscillating Ap (roAp) star gamma Equ. Based on high-resolution time-series…

Algol ($\beta$ Persei) is the prototypical semi-detached eclipsing binary and a hierarchical triple system. From 2006 to 2010 we obtained 121 high-resolution and high-S/N \'{e}chelle spectra of this object. Spectral disentangling yields the…
In this paper we present a high-resolution spectroscopic analysis of the chemically peculiar star HD207561. During a survey programme to search for new roAp stars in the Northern hemisphere, Joshi et al. (2006) observed significant…
We present a multi-instrument analysis of the rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) star HD 42659. We have obtained $B$ photometric data for this star and use these data, in conjunction with TESS observations, to analyse the high-frequency…
Kepler-454 (KOI-273) is a relatively bright (V = 11.69 mag), Sun-like starthat hosts a transiting planet candidate in a 10.6 d orbit. From spectroscopy, we estimate the stellar temperature to be 5687 +/- 50 K, its metallicity to be [m/H] =…
We investigate the relation between rotation periods $P_\mathrm{rot}$ and photometric modulation amplitudes $R_\mathrm{per}$ for $\approx 4,000$ Sun-like main-sequence stars observed by Kepler, using $P_\mathrm{rot}$ and $R_\mathrm{per}$…
The Ap star HD3980 appears to be a promising roAp candidate based on its fundamental parameters, leading us to search for rapid pulsations with the VLT UV-Visual Echelle Spectrograph (UVES). A precise Hipparcos parallax and estimated…

Altair is an A-type star known to have an appreciably oblate shape owing to its very fast rotation (~300 km/s). Despite of numerous publications on this star, its chemical abundances have been scarcely investigated so far, presumably…
