The first view of Scuti and Doradus stars with the TESS mission
V. Antoci, M. S. Cunha, D. M. Bowman +63
We present the first asteroseismic results for Scuti and Doradus stars observed in Sectors 1 and 2 of the TESS mission. We utilise the 2-min cadence TESS data for a sampl…
Towards an improvement in the spectral description of central stars of planetary nebulae
W. Weidmann, R. Gamen, D. Mast +7
Context. There are more than 3000 known Galactic planetary nebulae (PNe), but only 492 central stars of Galactic planetary nebulae (CSPN) have known spectral types. It is vital to…
Everything that glitters is not gold: V1315 Cas is not a dormant black hole
J. Zak, D. Jones, H. M. J. Boffin +11
The quest for quiet or dormant black holes has been ongoing since several decades. Ellipsoidal variables possibly indicate the existence of a very high-mass invisible companion and…
Tidally Trapped Pulsations in a close binary star system discovered by TESS
G. Handler, D. W. Kurtz, S. A. Rappaport +12
It has long been suspected that tidal forces in close binary stars could modify the orientation of the pulsation axis of the constituent stars. Such stars have been searched for, b…
HD 42477: coupled r modes, g modes and a p mode in an A0Vnne star
D. W. Kurtz, R. Jayaraman, P. Sowicka +4
Several studies have shown that a number of stars pulsating in p modes lie between the Cep and Sct instability strips in the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) Diagram. At present,…
280 one-opposition near-Earth asteroids recovered by the EURONEAR with the Isaac Newton Telescope
O. Vaduvescu, L. Hudin, T. Mocnik +80
One-opposition near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) are growing in number, and they must be recovered to prevent loss and mismatch risk, and to improve their orbits, as they are likely to b…
