Investigating chemically peculiar pulsating stars is crucial for understanding the pulsation driving mechanism in detail. To reveal the true peculiarity properties of stars detailed spectroscopic analysis is essential. Therefore, in this…

BS Cir is a representative of moderately cool magnetic chemically peculiar stars which displays very strong light variations in Stroemgren index c1 indicating large changes in the height of the Balmer jump. We present two-spot model of…

We report on the results of high dispersion spectroscopy of two `superflare stars', KIC 9766237, and KIC 9944137 with Subaru/HDS. Superflare stars are G-type main sequence stars, but show gigantic flares compared to the Sun, which have been…

HD 142990 is a Bp-type star with a nearly dipolar surface magnetic field of kG strength. Recently Lenc et al. (2018) reported the tentative discovery of Electron Cyclotron Maser Emission (ECME) from this star at 200 MHz. This type of…

Abundances of 21 elements in two 3He stars HD 185330 and 3 Cen A have been analysed relative to the well studied sharp-lined B3 V star iota Her. Six elements (P, Ti, Mn, Fe, Ni, and Br) are over-abundant in these two peculiar stars, while…

This study presents a detailed chemical, kinematic, and orbital dynamic analysis of five metal poor stars in the solar neighborhood: HD 2665, HD 5916, HD 122956, HD 189349, and HD 218857. Using high-resolution spectroscopic data from the…

We report on a chemical-abundance analysis of two very metal-poor horizontal-branch stars in the Milky Way halo: CS 22186-005 ([Fe/H]=-2.70) and CS 30344-033 ([Fe/H]=-2.90). The analysis is based on high-resolution spectra obtained at ESO,…

The origin of the magnetic fields of the chemically peculiar main sequence Ap/Bp stars is still matter of intense debate. The recent discoveries of magnetic fields in Herbig Ae/Be stars using high resolution data obtained with the…

The existence of pulsations in HgMn stars is still being debated. To provide the first unambiguous observational detection of pulsations in this class of chemically peculiar objects, the bright star HD 45975 was monitored for nearly two…

A team involved in APOGEE, one of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III programs, recently announced the discovery of two rare rigidly rotating magnetosphere stars, HD345439 and HD23478. Near-infrared spectra of these objects revealed…

HD\,37776 (V901\,Ori, B2\,Vp), also known as Landstreet's Star, is possibly the most remarkable magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) star known. Zeeman Doppler Imaging revealed this young, rapidly rotating star's surface magnetic field to be…

We present the first maps of the surface magnetic fields of a pre-main sequence binary system. Spectropolarimetric observations of the young, 18 Myr, HD 155555 (V824 Ara, G5IV + K0IV) system were obtained at the Anglo-Australian Telescope…

R-process enhanced metal-poor stars (\EuFe$\geq+0.3$ and \FeH$\leq-1.0$) are rare objects whose study can provide clues to the astrophysical sites of the rapid neutron capture process. In this study, we investigate the detailed chemical…

We report the results of our search for magnetic fields in a sample of 16 field Be stars, the binary emission-line B-type star upsilon Sgr, and in a sample of fourteen members of the open young cluster NGC3766 in the Carina spiral arm. The…

The nature of non-variable high-excitation emission lines detected in the optical spectra of normal late-B type and chemically peculiar HgMn and PGa stars is still poorly understood. To better understand the origin of the weak emission…

Based on 2-minute cadence TESS data, we investigate pulsations of TIC 65138566 and TIC 139729335 and discover them to be two new HADS stars with equally spaced g modes. We recognize the radial fundamental mode $f_1$ = 18.3334 c/d and the…

Magnetic fields with strengths ranging from 300 to 500 kG have recently been discovered in a group of four extremely similar helium-enriched hot subdwarf (He-sdO) stars. Besides their strong magnetic fields, these He-sdO stars are…

We report two new dramatically dusty main sequence stars: HD 131488 (A1V) and HD 121191 (A8V). HD 131488 is found to have substantial amounts of dust in its terrestrial planet zone (L_IR/L_bol~4x10^-3), cooler dust further out in its…

Context. Most massive stars are in binary or multiple systems. Several massive stars have been detected as doublelined spectroscopic binaries and among these, the OWN Survey has detected a non-negligible number whose components show very…

Mercury-manganese (HgMn) stars have been considered as non-magnetic and non-variable chemically peculiar (CP) stars for a long time. However, recent discoveries of the variability in spectral line profiles have suggested an inhomogeneous…
