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.

Magnetar Flare-driven Bumpy Declining Light Curves in Hydrogen-poor Superluminous Supernovae
Recent observations indicate that hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) often display bumpy declining light curves. However, the cause of these undulations remains unclear.

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 ...

Dynamic equilibrium and oscillations of stars with uneven mass of particles of the medium
Background. The study examines a model of the structure and evolution of stars in dynamic equilibrium, supplemented by a new analysis of the zonal flow velocity, new elements for describing the evolution of the heat flow, and the introduction of unequal ...

A unifying explanation of complex frequency spectra of gamma Dor, SPB and Be stars: combination frequencies and highly non-sinusoidal light curves [PDF]
There are many Slowly Pulsating B (SPB) stars and γ Dor stars in the Kepler mission data set. The light curves of these pulsating stars have been classified phenomenologically into stars with symmetric light curves and with asymmetric light curves.

Spectral and Photometric Studies of NGC 7469 in the Optical Range
The galaxy NGC 7469 is a bright infrared source with an active galactic nucleus (AGN) and an intense star-forming region with a radius of approximately 500 parsecs, where the star formation rate is estimated to be 20–50 M⊙yr−1.
