Catalog of 93 Nova Light Curves: Classification and Properties [PDF]
We present a catalog of 93 very-well-observed nova light curves. The light curves were constructed from 229,796 individual measured magnitudes, with the median coverage extending to 8.0 mag below peak and 26% of the light curves following the eruption ...

A New Statistical Approach to the Optical Spectral Variability in Blazars
We present a spectral variability study of a sample of about 25 bright blazars, based on optical spectroscopy. Observations cover the period from the end of 2008 to mid 2015, with an approximately monthly cadence.

The first WASP public data release [PDF]
The WASP (wide angle search for planets) project is an exoplanet transit survey that has been automatically taking wide field images since 2004. Two instruments, one in La Palma and the other in South Africa, continually monitor the night sky, building ...

Predicting Variable Star Light Curves [PDF]
AbstractI present a new method to test determinism, in particular the nonlinear behavior, in observed time series of pulsating stars, based on a recent prediction method which exploits the dynamical system theory. A method for filling gaps in data has thereby been constructed.

RobPer: An R Package to Calculate Periodograms for Light Curves Based on Robust Regression
An important task in astroparticle physics is the detection of periodicities in irregularly sampled time series, called light curves. The classic Fourier periodogram cannot deal with irregular sampling and with the measurement accuracies that are ...

Asymmetry in Microlensing-Induced Light Curves [PDF]
We discuss distortion in microlensing-induced light curves which are considered to be curves due to single-point-mass lenses at a first glance. As factors of the distortion, we consider close binary and planetary systems, which are the limiting cases of ...

Photoelectic BV Light Curves of Algol and the Interpretations of the Light Curves [PDF]
Standardized B and V photoelectric light curves of Algol are made with the observations obtained during 1982-84 with the 40-cm and the 61-cm reflectors of Yonsei University Observatory.

Testing the recovery of stellar rotation signals from Kepler light curves using a blind hare-and-hounds exercise [PDF]
We present the results of a blind exercise to test the recoverability of stellar rotation and differential rotation in Kepler light curves. The simulated light curves lasted 1000 days and included activity cycles, Sun-like butterfly patterns ...
