Robotic Astronomy with the Faulkes Telescopes and Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
We present results from ongoing science projects conducted by members of the Faulkes Telescope (FT) team and Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT). Many of these projects incorporate observations carried out and analysed by FT users, comprising amateur astronomers and schools.

Validating Gaia DR3 Pulsating Variable Classifications with TESS: Building Reliable δ Scuti and γ Doradus Stars Catalogs (In Progress)*

open access: yesResearch Notes of the AAS
Abstract Gaia DR3 revealed 748,058 pulsating variable stars of mixed DSCT∣GDOR∣SXPHE types. This project undertakes a comprehensive examination to validate and distinguish these stars using Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite data. Aiming for reliable catalogs of bona fide δ Scuti and γ Doradus stars, I have validated 1715 δ Scuti ...

A diagnostic diagram for γ Doradus variables and slowly pulsating B-type stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Pulsating variables of γ Doradus type (γ Dor) and slowly pulsating B-type (SPB) stars are found on and near the main sequence with typical periods varying between one and several days, making them rather hard to detect from the ground. It is only with space missions such as CoRoT and Kepler that we became truly capable of determining their oscillation ...

Photometry of Variable Stars from Dome A, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Dome A on the Antarctic plateau is likely one of the best observing sites on Earth thanks to the excellent atmospheric conditions present at the site during the long polar winter night.

Color and Variability Characteristics of Point Sources in the Faint Sky Variability Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present an analysis of the color and variability characteristics for point sources in the Faint Sky Variability Survey (FSVS). The FSVS cataloged ~23 square degrees in BVI filters from ~16--24 mag to investigate variability in faint sources at ...

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.

UV Spectroscopy of AB Doradus with the Hubble Space Telescope. Impulsive flares and bimodal profiles of the CIV 1549 line in a young star [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We observed AB Doradus, a young and active late type star (K0 - K2 IV-V, P= 0.514 d) with the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph of the post-COSTAR Hubble Space Telescope with the time and spectral resolutions of 27 s and 15 km, respectively.

Photometry of Variable Stars from THU-NAOC Transient Survey I: The First 2 Years [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we report the detections of stellar variabilities from the first 2-year observations of sky area of about 1300 square degrees from the Tsinghua University-NAOC Transient Survey (TNTS). A total of 1237 variable stars (including 299 new ones)

Evidence of Particle Acceleration in the Superbubble 30 Doradus C with NuSTAR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We present evidence of diffuse, non-thermal X-ray emission from the superbubble 30 Doradus C (30 Dor C) using hard X-ray images and spectra from NuSTAR observations.
