Analysis of pulsating variable stars using the visibility graph algorithm [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2021
We study the light curves of pulsating variable stars using a complex network approach to build visibility graphs. We consider various types of variables stars (e.g., Cepheids, δ Scuti, RR Lyrae), build two types of graphs (the normal visibility graph ...

A Study of Double- and Multi-mode RR Lyrae Variables

Open Astronomy, 2015
We present the results of our new study of known RR Lyrae variable stars. All observations available for these stars in the Catalina Surveys were analyzed, and double-mode variations were identified.

RR Lyrae Stars and Anomalous Cepheids as Population Tracers in Local Group Galaxies

Universe, 2022
We discuss the use and importance of pulsating variable stars as population tracers in Local Group galaxies. Among bright variable crossing the classical instability strip, we mostly focus on RR Lyrae stars and Anomalous Cepheids.

A geometric framework for outlier detection in high‐dimensional data

WIREs Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, Volume 13, Issue 3, May/June 2023., 2023
A geometric framework exploiting the metric structure of a data set allows to (1) conceptualize outlier detection on a general level and (2) to conduct outlier detection in a principled and canonical way in very different high‐dimensional and/or non‐tabular data types such as functions (A.1), graphs (B.1), or images (C.1).

Revisiting CoRoT RR Lyrae stars: detection of period doubling and temporal variation of additional frequencies [PDF]

, 2014
We search for signs of period doubling in CoRoT RR Lyrae stars. The occurrence of this dynamical effect in modulated RR Lyrae stars might help us to gain more information about the mysterious Blazhko effect.

Proper identification of RR Lyrae Stars brighter than 12.5 mag [PDF]

, 2005
RR Lyrae stars are of great importance for investigations of Galactic structure. However, a complete compendium of all RR-Lyraes in the solar neighbourhood with accurate classifications and coordinates does not exist to this day.

Modulation of the Blazhko Cycle in LS Her

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present analysis of the RR Lyrae star, LS Her, and confirm the previously reported modulation to its Blazhko cycles. We performed Fourier analysis on two sectors (Sector 24 and 25) of data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) spanning

Little Bear’s pulsating stars: Variable star census of UMi dSph Galaxy

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Recent observations and a photometric search for variable stars in the Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxy (UMi dSph) are presented. Our observations were taken at Apache Point Observatory in 2014 and 2016 using the 0.5m ARCSAT telescope and the West ...

PLATO as it is: A legacy mission for Galactic archaeology

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 338, Issue 6, Page 644-661, July 2017., 2017
Deciphering the assembly history of the Milky Way is a formidable task, which becomes possible only if one can produce high‐resolution chrono‐chemo‐kinematical maps of the Galaxy. Data from large‐scale astrometric and spectroscopic surveys will soon provide us with a well‐defined view of the current chemo‐kinematical structure of the Milky Way, but it ...

CCD SDSS gr Photometry of Poorly Studied Star Clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
We present for the first time CCD SDSS gr photometry, obtained at the Gemini South telescope with the GMOS attached, of stars in the field of the poorly studied star clusters NGC1768, HS 85, SL 676, NGC2107, NGC2190, and SL 866, which are distributed in the main body of the Large Magellanic Cloud.
