CLUSTERING-BASED FEATURE LEARNING ON VARIABLE STARS [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2016
The success of automatic classification of variable stars depends strongly on the lightcurve representation. Usually, lightcurves are represented as a vector of many descriptors designed by astronomers called features.

Observational Properties of 155 O- and B-type Massive Pulsating Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
O- and B-type (OB-type) pulsating stars are important objects for studying the structure and evolution of massive stars through asteroseismology. A large amount of data from various sky surveys provides an unprecedented opportunity to search for and ...

Variable stars in Local Group Galaxies - II. Sculptor dSph [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present the identification of 634 variable stars in the Milky Way dSph satellite Sculptor based on archival ground-based optical observations spanning $\sim$24 years and covering $\sim$ 2.5 deg$^2$.

Variable Stars Observed in the Galactic Disk by AST3-1 from Dome A, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
AST3-1 is the second-generation wide-field optical photometric telescope dedicated to time-domain astronomy at Dome A, Antarctica. Here, we present the results of an i-band images survey from AST3-1 toward one Galactic disk field.

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

A Catalog of New Slowly Pulsating B-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
This paper reports the discovery of new slowly pulsating B-type stars. Based on the photometric, spectral, and astrometric data of the TESS, LAMOST, and Gaia surveys, we have found 286 new slowly pulsating B-type (SPB) stars and 21 candidates.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

An X-Ray-dim “Isolated” Neutron Star in a Binary?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report the discovery of a dark companion to 2MASS J15274848+3536572 with an orbital period of 6.14 hr. Combining the radial velocity from LAMOST observations and modeling of the multiband light curve, one obtains a mass function of ≃0.131 M _⊙ , an ...

An Adaptive Management Model for Brown Bears in Hokkaido: Based on Total Population and the Number of Nuisance Bears

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Bear management changes management actions according to the horizontal axis of the population size and the vertical axis of the number of nuisance bears. Aiming for the target population size of Ntar, Actions I and II protect the bears, and Action IV reduces the population.
