Euclid Q1 reveals spatial variations of the extinction law in the dense cloud LDN 1641

Rui Chen, Shu Wang, Xiaodian Chen +1

Dust extinction laws are essential for precision photometry and provide a direct probe of grain properties, but their behaviour in dense molecular clouds remains poorly constrained…

A Search for High Frequency Oscillations in TESS Cycle 7

Guanda Huang, Xiaodian Chen, Shu Wang +2

High-quality, short-cadence photometry from TESS enables the detection of rapid oscillators with unprecedented sensitivity. In this work, we conduct a homogeneous search for high-f…

Classification for 969 double-mode RR Lyrae stars from Zwicky Transient Facility

Jianxing Zhang, Xiaodian Chen, Shu Wang +2

RR Lyrae (RRL) variable stars are cornerstone distance indicators. In particular, double-mode RR Lyrae (RRd) stars enable period--luminosity relations (PLRs) that are less sensitiv…

A Detailed Analysis of the Milky Way Warp Based on Classical Cepheids

Xiaoyue Zhou, Xiaodian Chen, Licai Deng +3

Classical Cepheids (CCs) are important probes for the large-scale warp structure of the Milky Way. Using Gaia DR3 CCs, we establish an optimal time-dependent warp model, where the…

A search of periodic variable stars in the LMC by JWST photometry

Jiyu Wang, Xiaodian Chen, Jianxing Zhang +3

Based on high-resolution near-infrared photometric data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) targeting the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), this study attempts to evaluate the f…

Photometric activity cycles in fast-rotating stars: Revisiting the reality of stellar activity cycle branches

Deepak Chahal, Devika Kamath, Richard de Grijs +2

We aim to detect activity cycles in young main-sequence stars, analogous to the 11-year solar cycle, using combined photometric survey data. This research will enhance our understa…
