Transient Corotating Clumps Around Adolescent Low-Mass Stars From Four Years of TESS
Luke G. Bouma, Rahul Jayaraman, Saul Rappaport +5
Complex periodic variables (CPVs) are stars that exhibit highly structured and periodic optical light curves. Previous studies have indicated that these stars are typically disk-fr…
A 9-Hr CV With One Outburst in 4 Years of Kepler Data
Zhifei Yu, John Thorstensen, Saul Rappaport +11
During a visual search through the Kepler main-field lightcurves, we have discovered a cataclysmic variable (CV) that experienced only a single 4-day long outburst over four years,…
Complex Rotational Modulation of Rapidly Rotating M-Stars Observed with TESS
Z. Zhan, M. N. Günther, S. Rappaport +23
We have searched for short periodicities in the light curves of stars with cooler than 4000 K made from 2-minute cadence data obtained in TESS sectors 1 and 2. Herein…
Triple-Star Candidates Among the Kepler Binaries
S. Rappaport, K. Deck, A. Levine +5
We present the results of a search through the photometric database of eclipsing Kepler binaries (Prsa et al. 2011; Slawson et al. 2011) looking for evidence of hierarchical triple…
The Past and Future History of Regulus
S. Rappaport, Ph. Podsiadlowski, I. Horev
We show how the recent discovery of a likely close white dwarf companion to the well known star Regulus, one of the brightest stars in the sky, leads to considerable insight into t…
