In order to extend our previous studies of the unexplained phenomenon of cyclic amplitude variations in pulsating red giants, we have used the AAVSO time-series analysis package VSTAR to analyze long-term AAVSO visual observations of 50…

We have used long-term AAVSO visual observations and Fourier and wavelet analysis to identify periods and study long-term amplitude variations in 44 red supergiants. Of these, 12 stars had data which were too sparse and/or had low amplitude…

It was recently discovered that the amplitudes of pulsating red giants and supergiants vary significantly on time scales of 20-30 pulsation periods. Here, we analyze the amplitude variability in 29 pulsating yellow supergiants (5 RVa, 4…

Several classes of pulsating stars are now known to undergo slow changes in amplitude; these include pulsating red giants and supergiants, and yellow supergiants. We have used visual observations from the AAVSO International Database, and…

We have used systematic, sustained visual observations from the AAVSO International Database, and the AAVSO time-series analysis package VSTAR to study the unexplained "long secondary periods" (LSPs) in 27 pulsating red giants. In our…

This paper reports on time-series analysis of 156 pulsating red giants (21 SRa, 52 SRb, 33 SR, 50 Lb) in the AAVSO (American Association of Variable Star Observers) observing program for which there are no more than 150-250 observations in…

We study the brightness variations of galactic red supergiant stars using long-term visual light curves collected by the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO) over the last century. The full sample contains 48 red…

We have used AAVSO visual and photoelectric V data, and the AAVSO time-series package VSTAR and the Lomb-Scargle time-series algorithm to determine improved pulsation periods, "long secondary periods" (LSPs). and their amplitudes in 51…

Red giants are unstable to radial pulsation. About a third of them also show a long secondary period, 5 to 10 times the pulsation period. The long secondary periods were recently ascribed to eclipses of the red giant by a low-mass…

We have used visual and Johnson V observations from the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO) International Database, and the AAVSO VSTAR time-series package, and (O-C) analysis to investigate possible changes in the…

We have measured the times of onset of recent fadings in four R CrB stars -- V854 Cen, RY Sgr, R CrB, and S Aps. These times continue to be locked to the stars' pulsation periods, though with some scatter. In RY Sgr, the onsets of fading…

We have analysed the three-colour photometry of 34 pulsating red giants that was published by Percy, Wilson and Henry (2001). As is common with semiregulars, many of these stars have long secondary periods (LSPs) of several years, in…

M giants are among the longest-period pulsating stars which is why their studies were traditionally restricted to analyses of low-precision visual observations, and more recently, accurate ground-based data. Here we present an overview of M…

This project began as a search for triple-mode pulsating red giants (PRGs) among known double-mode PRGs,, using AAVSO visual data. It then expanded to include a check on the reality and significance of some double-mode PRGs. We identified…

The All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) has recently used over 2000 days of data to identify more than 50,000 variable stars, automatically classify these, determine periods and amplitudes for those that are periodic -- part…

We briefly review the phenomenon of long secondary periods (LSPs) in red giants, and the LSP variable stars classification introduced in the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) variable star catalog; they are red giant Long…

The variation of average brightness during the time and the variation of the amplitude of the Mira-type stars T Cep, X CrB, U UMi, U Cyg, BG Cyg is studied. For the research, the observations of the members of the French association of…

Based on a search for multi-periodic variability among the semi-regular red variable stars in the database of the All Sky Automated Survey (ASAS), a sample of 72 typical examples is presented. Their period analysis was performed using…

We performed hydrodynamic computations of nonlinear stellar pulsations of population I stars at the evolutionary stages of the ascending red giant branch and the following luminosity drop due to the core helium flash. Red giants populating…

We have identified 22 new variable red giants in 47 Tuc and determined periods for another 8 previously known variables. All red giants redder than V-I_c=1.8 are variable at the limits of our detection threshold, which corresponds to delta…
