Pollux: a stable weak dipolar magnetic field but no planet ?

Michel Auriere, Renada Konstantinova-Antova, Olivier Espagnet +5

Pollux is considered as an archetype of a giant star hosting a planet: its radial velocity (RV) presents sinusoidal variations with a period of about 590 d, which have been stable…

The rotation rates of massive stars: How slow are the slow ones?

J. O. Sundqvist, S. Simon-Diaz, J. Puls +1

Context: Rotation plays a key role in the life cycles of stars with masses above 8 Msun. Hence, accurate knowledge of the rotation rates of such massive stars is critical for under…

H-alpha observations of the gamma-ray-emitting Be/X-ray binary LSI+61303: orbital modulation, disk truncation, and long-term variability

R. Zamanov, K. Stoyanov, J. Marti +4

We report 138 spectral observations of the H-alpha emission line of the radio- and gamma-ray-emitting Be/X-ray binary LSI+61303 obtained during the period of September 1998 -- Janu…

Seismic investigation of the γ Dor star KIC 6462033: The first results of Kepler and ground-based follow up observations

C. Ulusoy, B. Ulaş, M. Damasso +5

We present the first preliminary results on the analysis of ground-based time series of the γ Dor star KIC 6462033 (TYC 3144-646-1, V = 10.83, P = 0.69686 d) as well as Kepler phot…

The (non-)variability of magnetic chemically peculiar candidates in the Large Magellanic Cloud

E. Paunzen, Z. Mikulasek, R. Poleski +3

The galactic magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) stars of the upper main sequence are well known as periodic spectral and light variables. The observed variability is obviously caus…

Towards a photometric metallicity scale for open clusters

M. Netopil, E. Paunzen

Open clusters are a useful tool when investigating several topics connected with stellar evolution; for example the age or distance can be more accurately determined than for field…

Photometric and spectroscopic variability of the FUor star V582 Aurigae

E. H. Semkov, S. P. Peneva, U. Munari +5

We carried out BVRI CCD photometric observations in the field of V582 Aur from 2009 August to 2013 February. We acquired high-, medium-, and low-resolution spectroscopy of V582 Aur…
