Wildly Oscillating Stars -- Unexplained dense ridge-like frequency agglomerations in A and F type pulsators
V. Antoci, J. Labadie-Bartz, M. Swiech +14
We investigate the origin of the dense, ridge-like frequency clusters observed in a subset of A and F type pulsating stars, which we refer to as `wildly oscillating' stars (WOS). T…
Discovery of the First Octupole Pulsation Mode in a delta Scuti Star: A Stationary l = 3 Sectoral Mode
S. A. Rappaport, R. Jayaraman, G. Handler +8
Aims. We are attempting to better understand how stellar pulsations in close binary systems are affected, and possibly induced, by tidal, Coriolis, and centrifugal forces. Methods.…
EL CMi: confirmation of triaxial pulsation theory
G. Handler, S. A. Rappaport, D. Jones +10
Triaxial pulsators are a recently discovered group of oscillating stars in close binary systems that show pulsations around three axes at the same time. It has recently been theore…
HD 60435: The star that stopped pulsating
Donald W. Kurtz, Gerald Handler, Daniel L. Holdsworth +10
HD 60435 is a well-known rapidly oscillating (roAp) Ap star with a series of alternating even and odd degree modes, making it a prime asteroseismic target. It is also an oblique pu…
Tidally distorted stars are triaxial pulsators
Jim Fuller, Saul Rappaport, Rahul Jayaraman +2
Stars in close binaries are tidally distorted, and this has a strong effect on their pulsation modes. We compute the mode frequencies and geometries of tidally distorted stars usin…
TIC 435850195: The Second Tri-Axial, Tidally Tilted Pulsator
Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport, Brian Powell +8
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has enabled the discovery of numerous tidally tilted pulsators (TTPs), which are pulsating stars in close binaries where the presen…
Tidally Trapped Pulsations in Binary Stars
J. Fuller, D. W. Kurtz, G. Handler +1
A new class of pulsating binary stars was recently discovered, whose pulsation amplitudes are strongly modulated with orbital phase. Stars in close binaries are tidally distorted,…
