We present a model atmosphere analysis of optical VRI and infrared JHK photometric data of about two dozen ZZ Ceti stars. We first show from a theoretical point of view that the resulting energy distributions are not particularly sensitive…

The linear stability analysis of a stratified rotating fluid (see paper I) showed that disks with a baroclinic stratification under the influence of thermal relaxation will become unstable to thermal instabilities. One instability is the…

The identification of pulsation modes in delta Scuti stars is mandatory to constrain the theoretical stellar models. The non-adiabatic observables used in the photometric identification methods depend, however,on convection modeling in the…

We present photometric and spectroscopic analyses of gravity (g-mode) long-period pulsating hot subdwarf B (sdB) stars. We perform a detailed asteroseismic and spectroscopic analysis of five pulsating sdB stars observed with {\it TESS}…

We present the sub-mm variability of two of the most well studied AGB stars, IRC+10216 and $o$ Ceti. The data are obtained at $450~\micron$ and $850~\micron$ as part of pointing calibration observations for the James Clerk Maxwell…

We consider the pulsational properties of white dwarf star models with temperatures appropriate for the ZZ Ceti instability strip and with masses large enough that they should be substantially crystallized. Our work is motivated by the…

We combine all the reliably-measured eigenperiods for hot, short-period ZZ Ceti stars onto one diagram and show that it has the features expected from evolutionary and pulsation theory. To make a more detailed comparison with theory we…

The overstability of the fundamental radial mode in M dwarf models was theoretically predicted by Rodr\'iguez-L\'opez et al. (2012). The periods were found to be in the ranges ~25-40 min and ~4-8 h, depending on stellar age and excitation…
