Observations of red‐giant variable stars by Aboriginal Australians
, 2017 Aboriginal Australians carefully observe the properties and positions of stars, including both overt and subtle changes in their brightness, for subsistence and social application. These observations are encoded in oral tradition.

A Population of Dipper Stars from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite Mission
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2022 Dipper stars are a classification of young stellar objects that exhibit dimming variability in their light curves, dropping in brightness by 10%–50%, likely induced by occultations due to circumstellar disk material.

Variability of Known Exoplanet Host Stars Observed by TESS
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Both direct and indirect methods of exoplanet detection rely upon detailed knowledge of the potential host stars. Such stellar characterization allows for accurate extraction of planetary properties, as well as contributing to our overall understanding ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...

Improved methodology for the automated classification of periodic variable stars
, 2019 We present a novel automated methodology to detect and classify periodic variable stars in a large data base of photometric time series. The methods are based on multivariate Bayesian statistics and use a multistage approach. We applied our method to the

Period–Luminosity Relations for Double-mode δ Sct Stars
The Astrophysical JournalPrevious studies of the period–luminosity relations (PLRs) of Delta Scuti ( δ Sct) stars have focused on those with a single pulsation mode. However, for δ Sct stars with many different pulsation modes, classifying a single mode is difficult.

Period Analysis of Variable Stars by Robust Smoothing
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C: Applied Statistics, 2004 SummaryThe objective is to estimate the period and the light curve (or periodic function) of a variable star. Previously, several methods have been proposed to estimate the period of a variable star, but they are inaccurate especially when a data set contains outliers.
