On the upper limit on stellar masses in the Large Magellanic Cloud cluster R136
(Oxford University Press, 2006)
A truncated power-law distribution is fitted to the 29 largest stellar masses known in R136.
Two different statistical techniques are used, with comparable results. An upper limit to the
mass distribution of the order ...
Time series photometry of the nearby brown dwarf DENIS-P J0041353-562112
(Oxford University Press, 2011)
DENIS-P J0041353−562112 is a brown dwarf, with a spectral type of M7.5, which may be
younger than 20 Myr. On the basis of its Hα emission-line asymmetry, it has been suggested
that the object is accreting material. If ...
JHKs time-series observations of a few ultracool dwarfs
(Oxford University Press, 2005)
The M8.5 object SSSPM J0109−5101 has recently been shown to be both a periodic and a
flaring variable, based on optical observations in the extreme red. More than 16 h of monitoring
in the near-infrared (NIR) reported ...
Multicolour time series photometry of 2MASS 1207−3932
(Oxford University Press, 2008)
Time series photometry in VRI of the young brown dwarf Two-Micron All-Sky Survey
(2MASS) J1207334−393254 is presented. Variability in I is insignificant, but amplitudes
up to ∼0.2 mag in R, and ∼0.55 mag in V, are seen ...
UBV(RI)C photometry of transiting planet hosting stars
(Oxford University Press, 2011)
We present new UBV(RI)C photometry of 22 stars that host transiting planets, 19 of which
were discovered by the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) survey. We use these data
together with Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) ...
PG 0907+123 and JL 194: slowly pulsating hot subdwarf stars
(Oxford University Press, 2010)
Multicolour time-series photometry of two newly discovered slowly pulsating sdB stars
(V1093 Her stars, also known as PG 1716 stars) is described. Both stars are fairly bright
and appear, from the limited amount of data, ...
HE 0230–4323: An unusual pulsating hot subdwarf star
(Oxford University Press, 2007)
HE 0230−4323 is a known binary, consisting of a subdwarf star and a companion which is not
observable in the optical. Photometric measurements reported in this paper have shown it to be
both a reflection-effect and a ...
Identifying multiple periodicities in sparse photon event time series
(Oxford University Press, 2016)
The data considered are event times (e.g. photon arrival times, or the occurrence of sharp
pulses). The source is multiperiodic, or the data could be multiperiodic because several unresolved sources contribute to the time ...
Multifilter observations of the complex periodic variations in eight pre-main sequence stars
(Royal Astronomical Society, 2023)
Follow up time series photometry through various combinations of the BVRCIC filter set is presented for eight young stars. The complex periodic variability of seven of the stars was first discovered in TESS photometry, ...
Multifilter time-series observations of eleven blue short-period atlas variable stars
(IOP Publishing, 2023)
Eleven periodic variable stars were observed photometrically through two to four filters from the set UBVRCIC.
Phase-folded data for each star cover full cycles of variation. Spectral energy distributions, based on ...
