Kepler Discovery of GW Vir Pulsations of the Central Star of Planetary Nebula Kn 61

Paulina Sowicka, Gerald Handler, J. J. Hermes +1

We report the discovery of pulsations in the N-rich PG 1159-type central star of the planetary nebula Kn 61 based on one month of Kepler Short Cadence observations. We detect four…

Spectroscopy of hot Gamma Doradus and A-F hybrid Kepler candidates close to the hot border of the Delta Scuti instability strip

F. Kahraman Alicavus, E. Poretti, G. Catanzaro +4

If Gamma Dor-type pulsations are driven by the convective blocking mechanism, a convective envelope at a sufficient depth is essential. There are several hot Gamma Dor and hybrid s…

New Beta Cephei stars in the young open cluster NGC 637

G. Handler, S. Meingast

Studying stellar pulsations in open clusters offers the possibility to perform ensemble asteroseismology. The reasonable assumption that the cluster members have the same age, dist…
