This paper examines the mode identification and presents pulsation models for FG Vir, for which 24 frequencies have been detected. Histograms of the frequency spacings show peaks which are identified with adjacent radial orders and…
We present observations and analysis of time-series spectroscopy and photometry of the pulsating subdwarf B star PG 1219+534 (KY UMa). Subdwarf B stars are blue horizontal branch stars which have shed most of their hydrogen envelopes.…
We present results of a multi-year study of the high-amplitude $\delta$ Scuti (HADS) star GSC 03144-595. The star was observed between June and September in 2011 and 2014 for 13 nights and 28 nights respectively. Based on our results we…
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…
A survey for line profile variability in early A-type stars has been performed in order to detect nonradial pulsation signatures. The star HR 6139, with spectral type A2V and estimated T_eff=8800 K, shows evident line profile variations…
Photometric observations of HD~217522 in 1981 revealed only one pulsation frequency $\nu_1=1.21529$~mHz. Subsequent observations in 1989 showed the presence of an additional frequency $\nu_2=2.0174$~mHz. New observations in 2008 confirm the…
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…
People can diagnose the interiors of stars by sensing their pulsations. Pulsation modes, which are determined by the internal state and structure of a star, are typically considered stable over short timescales. These independent pulsation…
We present time-resolved optical spectrophotometry of the pulsating hydrogen atmosphere (DA) white dwarf G 117-B15A. We find three periodicities in the pulsation spectrum (215s, 272s, and 304s) all of which have been found in earlier…
K2 photometry is suitable for the exploitation of mode variability on short timescales in hot B subdwarf stars, which is important to constrain nonlinear quantities addressed by the stellar theory of high-order perturbation in the future.…

Blue Large Amplitude Pulsators (BLAPs) are blue stars showing high amplitude (>0.2 mag) pulsations on a timescale of a few tens of mins. They form a new class of variable star recently discovered using OGLE data. It has lead to a number of…
The beta Cephei star delta Ceti was considered one of the few monoperiodic variables in the class. Despite (or perhaps because of) its apparently simple oscillation spectrum, it has been challenging and controversial to identify this star's…
We have completed a high-resolution, high-signal-to-noise, spectroscopic survey of the northern members of the peculiar lambda Boo stars in order to investigate the frequency of the incidence of nonradial pulsation (NRP) in these…
The OGLE database is revisited to investigate in more detail the properties of the Fourier parameters. Methodological improvements led us to identify a clear separation among High-Amplitude Delta Scuti (HADS), RRc and RRab stars. The…
We present the latest results from our analysis of time resolved spectroscopy of PG 1605+072, a high amplitude pulsating sdB star. The star is believed to have evolved off the extreme horizontal branch, and it is uncertain whether it…
Precise time-series photometry with the MOST satellite has led to identification of 10 pulsation frequencies in the rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) star HD 134214. We have fitted the observed frequencies with theoretical frequencies of…
We present the characterization of KIC 4142768, an eclipsing binary with two evolved A-type stars in an eccentric orbit with a period of 14 days. We measure the fundamental parameters of the two components ($M_1=2.05M_{\odot},…
We present the ${\it Kepler}$ photometry of KIC 6048106 exhibiting O'Connell effect and multiperiodic pulsations. Including a starspot on either of the components, light-curve synthesis indicates that this system is a semi-detached Algol…
We used Johnson UBV photometric CCD observations to identify pulsating and other variable stars in the young open cluster NGC 6231. The multi-color information was used to classify pulsating variables, perform frequency analysis, and -…
