- Description:
- Broad band photometry (in Johnson B and V) has been obtained in a region (34'x34') at the North-Eastern quadrant of M31 over 5 years (1999-2003) at the Isaac Newton Telescope (La Palma, Spain). The data, containing more than 250 observations per filter, have been reduced by means of the so-called difference image analysis technique and the DAOPHOT program. A catalog with 236238 objects with photometry in both B and V passbands has been obtained. The catalog is the deepest (V<25.5mag) obtained so far in the studied region and contains 3964 identified variable stars, with 437 eclipsing binaries and 416 Cepheids.

- Description:
- Deep B, V time-series photometry obtained with the ESO Very Large Telescope has been used to identify variable stars in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. We surveyed a 6.8x6.8 arcmin area of the galaxy and detected a total number of 390 candidate variables with the optimal image subtraction technique (Alard C., 2000A&AS..144..363A). Light curves on a magnitude scale were obtained for 262 of these variables. Differential flux light curve are available for the remaining sample. We were able to determine periods and pulsation characteristics for 69 out of the 262 variables with light curves in magnitude scale, they include: 18 RR Lyrae stars (16 ab-type and 2 c-type), 45 Cepheids and 6 binary systems. We also tentatively calibrated 8 of the 128 objects with light curves on a differential flux scale on the assumption that they are ab-type RR Lyrae stars.

- Description:
- We have performed a search for variable stars in the Sculptor Group spiral galaxy NGC 300 using wide-field multi-epoch BV photometry up to a limiting magnitude V~23. Apart from the Cepheid variables in this galaxy already reported in an earlier paper by Pietrzynski et al. (2002, Cat. <J/AJ/123/789>) and the variable blue supergiants reported by Bresolin et al. (2002ApJ...567..277B), we have identified 26 additional periodic variables, with periods ranging from 0.2 to 190d, and 121 slow variables. Two of these newly discovered variables are Galactic foreground stars (one of them is a W UMa system), and three correspond to previously identified Wolf-Rayet stars. 16 stars are new Cepheids, and the other objects span a huge range in colours and represent a mixture of different types of luminous variables.

- Description:
- Contemporaneous spectroscopic and photometric BV observations of the RS CVn type eclipsing binary RT Lacertae were performed in summer 2000. The photometric observations were obtained at the Ege University Observatory, while the spectroscopic ones were carried out at Catania Astrophysical Observatory in the spectral range 5860-6700{AA}. We obtained a high quality radial velocity curve of the system that allowed us to give more accurate values of the orbital parameters.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report the discovery of 19 variable stars and two blue stragglers in the field of the open cluster NGC 6866. Three of the variable stars we classify as delta Sct, two as g Dor, four as WUMa, two as ellipsoidal variables, and one as an eclipsing binary. Seven stars show irregular variability. Two of the pulsators, delta Sct star NGC 6866-29 and gamma Dor star NGC 6866-21, are multiperiodic.

- Description:
- We observed a field in the disk of the LMC on two consecutive nights in search of rapid variable stars. We found two pulsating stars of type RRab and Scuti and four binary stars; among the latter we found one sdB or cataclysmic variable below the LMC blue main sequence and three very close binary systems on the main sequence.

- BV photometry of UX Ari in 1987-2002
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present 14.3 years of previously unpublished photometric observations of UX Ari. The observations were obtained between 1987.9 and 2002.2 using the T3 0.4-metre Automatic Photoelectric Telescope at Fairborn Observatory and consist of 1228 B band and 1213 V band measurements. The comparison star was 62 Ari and the check star was 59 Ari. We have analyzed the new data together with previously published photometric observations. The V magnitude shows variations with dominant periods of about 12 and 25 years, where the longest period seems to correspond to an activity cycle. The previously reported anticorrelation between the B V colour and V magnitude variations is confirmed.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- B and V photometry has been obtained for variable stars in the northeast arm of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Periods and light curves have been determined for 237 periodic variables, including 201 Cepheids, 68 of which are newly discovered. Fundamental-mode Cepheids and first-overtone mode Cepheids are generally well separated in the BV color-magnitude diagram, with the latter having bluer mean colors than the former. The Cepheid period-color relationship for this outlying SMC field is indistinguishable from that seen in more centrally located SMC fields and is bluer than theoretical predictions. The red edge to the populated portion of the instability strip shifts to bluer colors for fainter Cepheids. There is support from our sample for a previously reported steepening in the slope of the period-luminosity relation for fundamental-mode Cepheids near a period of 2 days. The Cepheids of the northeast arm may be closer to us than are those of the main body of the SMC, but the difference is smaller than or equal to about 4kpc, comparable to the tidal radius of the SMC.

- 1984-1998 BV photometry of V815 Her
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- As a case study of the solar-stellar connection, we have analysed a prolonged time series of BV photometry of the chromospherically active binary V815 Her. The surface differential rotation in the rapidly rotating G5V primary caused changes of 4.6% in the seasonal photometric rotation periods. This would imply a differential rotation coefficient of k=0.184, if the rotation of the starspots follow the solar law of differential rotation and the activity is confined within the same latitudinal range as in the Sun, having k=0.189 and the spectral type G2V. Our analysis of the primary and secondary minima of the seasonal light curves indicated that the regions of stronger activity have concentrated on one active longitude, which has maintained a constant rotation period of 1.79244d for about 14 years. No regular activity cycle was detected in the mean brightness changes of V815 Her.

- Description:
- High-precision, space-based photometric missions like CoRoT and Kepler have revealed new and surprising phenomena in classical variable stars. Such discoveries were the period doubling in RR Lyrae stars and the frequent occurrence of additional periodicities some of which can be explained by radial overtone modes, but others are discordant with the radial eigenfrequency spectrum. We search for signs of period doubling in CoRoT RR Lyrae stars. The occurrence of this dynamical effect in modulated RR Lyrae stars might help us to gain more information about the mysterious Blazhko effect. The temporal variability of the additional frequencies in representatives of all subtypes of RR Lyrae stars is also investigated.
