An Extremely Hot Pulsating Pre-White Dwarf from OGLE
P. Pietrukowicz, K. Werner, M. J. Mroz +1
We show that the blue 18.3-minute variable object discovered in the Galactic disk by the OGLE-III survey and named OGLE-GD-WD-0001 is a pulsating pre-white dwarf of PG 1159 spectra…

Variability of Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae with the Zwicky Transient Facility. I. Methods, Short-Timescale Variables, Binary Candidates, and the Unusual Nucleus of WeSb 1
Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, S. R. Kulkarni, Albert K. H. Kong +16
Over the past several decades, time-series photometry of CSPNe has yielded significant results including, but not limited to, discoveries of nearly 100 binary systems, insights int…
