Pulsation in hot main sequence stars: comparison of observations with models

Luis A. Balona

TESS observations of pulsating hot main sequence stars paint a very different picture from what is currently accepted. There are large numbers of delta Scuti (DSCT) stars hotter th…

Maia variables and other anomalies among pulsating stars

Luis A Balona

From TESS photometry, 493 mid- to late-B stars with high frequencies (Maia variables) have been identified. The distribution of projected rotational velocities shows that the rotat…

Identification and classification of TESS variable stars

Luis A. Balona

Visual classification of the variability classes of over 120,000 Kepler, K2 and TESS stars is presented. The sample is mainly based on stars with known spectral types. Since variab…

The extraordinary frequency pattern variation in δ Scuti stars

Luis A. Balona

Inspection of the periodograms of TESS delta Scuti stars indicates that there is little, if any, similarity between the frequencies of stars in the same region of the H-R diagram.…

Rapidly-oscillating {\it TESS} A--F main sequence stars: are the roAp stars a distinct class?

L. A. Balona

From sector 1--44 {\em TESS} observations, 19 new roAp stars, 103 ostensibly non-peculiar stars with roAp-like frequencies and 617 ~Scuti stars with independent frequencies typi…

Spots and flares in hot main sequence stars

L. A. Balona

About 22000 Kepler stars and nearly 60000 TESS stars from sectors 1-24 have been classified according to variability type. A large proportion of stars of all spectral types appear…
