Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2014 The light curves of EGS Ajisai with temporal resolution of 20 ms referred to the time scale UTC (GPS) with an error of at most 0.1 ms were obtained. The observed flashes are produced when the mirrors which cover the spinning satellite’s surface reflect ...

On the precession of accretion discs in X-ray binaries
, 1998 In this letter recent results on the nodal precession of accretion discs in close binaries are applied to the discs in some X-ray binary systems. The ratio between the tidally forced precession period and the binary orbital period is given, as well as ...

Towards models of gravitational waveforms from generic binaries II: Modelling precession effects with a single effective precession parameter [PDF]
, 2014 Gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by generic black-hole binaries show a rich structure that directly reflects the complex dynamics introduced by the precession of the orbital plane, which poses a real challenge to the development of generic waveform ...

Pseudo-Newtonian Potentials for Nearly Parabolic Orbits [PDF]
, 2012 We describe a pseudo-Newtonian potential which, to within 1% error at all angular momenta, reproduces the precession due to general relativity of particles whose specific orbital energy is small compared to c^2 in the Schwarzschild metric.

Tkachenko waves, glitches and precession in neutron star
, 2008 Here I discuss possible relations between free precession of neutron stars, Tkachenko waves inside them and glitches. I note that the proposed precession period of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125 (Haberl et al.

Pulsar state switching, timing noise and free precession [PDF]
, 2011 Recent radio pulsar observations have shown that a number of pulsars display interesting long term periodicities in their spin-down rates. At least some of these pulsars also undergo sharp changes in pulse profile.

Resonant relaxation in protoplanetary disks [PDF]
, 1998 Resonant relaxation is a novel form of two-body relaxation that arises in nearly Keplerian disks such as protoplanetary disks. Resonant relaxation does not affect the semimajor axes of the particles, but enhances relaxation of particle eccentricities and

Lense-Thirring Precession in Pleba\'nski-Demia\'nski spacetimes
, 2013 An exact expression of Lense-Thirring precession rate is derived for non-extremal and extremal Pleba\'nski-Demia\'nski spacetimes. This formula is used to find the exact Lense-Thirring precession rate in various axisymmetric spacetimes, like: Kerr, Kerr ...
