Optical atmospheric extinction over Cerro Paranal

F. Patat, S. Moehler, K. O'Brien +14

Aims: The present study was conducted to determine the optical extinction curve for Cerro Paranal under typical clear-sky observing conditions, with an accuracy of 0.01 mag/airmass…

Mode identification from monochromatic amplitude and phase variations for the rapidly pulsating subdwarf B star EC 20338-1925

S. K. Randall, G. Fontaine, P. Brassard +1

We obtain time-series spectrophotometry observations at the VLT with the aim of partially identifying the dominant oscillation modes in the rapidly pulsating subdwarf B star EC 203…

EXOTIME: searching for planets around pulsating subdwarf B stars

Sonja Schuh, Roberto Silvotti, Ronny Lutz +27

In 2007, a companion with planetary mass was found around the pulsating subdwarf B star V391 Pegasi with the timing method, indicating that a previously undiscovered population of…

V391 Peg: identification of the two main pulsation modes from ULTRACAM u'g'r' amplitudes

Roberto Silvotti, Suzanna Randall, Vik S. Dhillon +5

V391 Peg (HS2201+2610) is an extreme horizontal branch subdwarf B (sdB) star, it is an hybrid pulsator showing p- and g-mode oscillations, and hosts a 3.2/sini M_Jup planet at an o…

Ground-based follow-up in relation to Kepler Asteroseismic Investigation

K. Uytterhoeven, M. Briquet, H. Bruntt +12

The Kepler space mission, successfully launched in March 2009, is providing continuous, high-precision photometry of thousands of stars simultaneously. The uninterrupted time-serie…
