The analysis of indexed astronomical time series – X. Significance testing of O − C data
(Oxford University Press, 2006)It is assumed that O − C (‘observed minus calculated’) values of periodic variable stars are determined by three processes, namely measurement errors, random cycle-to-cycle jitter in the period, and possibly long-term ... -
The analysis of irregularly observed stochastic astronomical time-series – I. Basics of linear stochastic differential equations
(Oxford University Press, 2005)The theory of low-order linear stochastic differential equations is reviewed. Solutions to these equations give the continuous time analogues of discrete time autoregressive time-series. Explicit forms for the power ... -
Correcting CCD photometry of stars for seeing effects
(Oxford Univeristy Press, 2009)Systematic variability in stellarmagnitudes, as derived from profile fitting to CCD images,may in some instances be due to variable seeing. It is suggested that this happens in cases where the stars are unresolved pairs, ...
