The Dark Side of Neutron Stars

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
We review severe constraints on asymmetric bosonic dark matter based on observations of old neutron stars. Under certain conditions, dark matter particles in the form of asymmetric bosonic WIMPs can be effectively trapped onto nearby neutron stars, where they can rapidly thermalize and concentrate in the core of the star.

Validation of the Gaia Early Data Release 3 Parallax Zero-point Model with Asteroseismology

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2021
Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) provides trigonometric parallaxes for 1.5 billion stars, with reduced systematics compared to Gaia Data Release 2 and reported precisions better by up to a factor of 2.

Pulsation in Intermediate-Mass Stars

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
A new perspective of pulsation in stars within the δ Scuti instability strip has recently emerged as a result of Kepler observations. The majority of stars within the instability strip do not pulsate and practically all δ Scuti stars contain low ...

Revisiting the δ Scuti star FG Virginis using Kepler K2 and TESS data

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
FG Virginis is a δ Scuti variable star that was the target of several ground-based multisite photometric campaigns from 1992 to 2004. Over 75 pulsation frequencies were detected (Breger et al., Astron.

Asteroseismology with the Kepler mission [PDF]

open access: bronzeCommunications in Asteroseismology, 2007
NASA's Kepler mission will fly a photometer based on a wide-field Schmidt camera with a 0.95 m aperture, staring at a single field continuously for at least 4 years. Although the mission's principal aim is to locate transiting extrasolar planets, it will provide an unprecedented opportunity to make asteroseismic observations on a wide variety of stars.

From Dust Bowl to Dust Bowl: Soils are Still Very Much a Frontier of Science

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 75, Issue 6, Page 2037-2048, November 2011., 2011
When the Soil Science Society of America was created, 75 yr ago, the USA was suffering from major dust storms, causing the loss of enormous amounts of topsoil as well as human lives. These catastrophic events reminded public officials that soils are essential to society's well‐being. The Soil Conservation Service was founded and farmers were encouraged

Nonanalytic Relativistic r-Modes of Slowly Rotating Nonbarotropic Neutron Stars

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
We show that the r-modes of slowly rotating nonbarotropic neutron stars are described by nonanalytic functions of stellar angular velocity, which makes the perturbation techniques, used so far in the r-mode theoretical studies, inapplicable.

T35: A Small Automatic Telescope for Long‐Term Observing Campaigns

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
The T35 is a small telescope (14″) equipped with a large format CCD camera installed in the Sierra Nevada Observatory (SNO) in Southern Spain. This telescope will be a useful tool for the detecting and the studying of pulsating stars, particularly, in open clusters.

The APO-K2 Catalog. I. ∼7500 Red Giants with Fundamental Stellar Parameters from APOGEE DR17 Spectroscopy and K2-GAP Asteroseismology

open access: yesAstronomical Journal
We present a catalog of fundamental stellar properties for ∼7500 evolved stars, including stellar radii and masses, determined from the combination of spectroscopic observations from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment, part of the

Tracing early stellar evolution with asteroseismology: pre-main sequence stars in NGC 2264

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Asteroseismology has been proven to be a successful tool to unravel details of the internal structure for different types of stars in various stages of their main sequence and post-main sequence evolution.
