We present the results of a systematic search for new rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) stars using the 2-min cadence data collected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during its Cycle 1 observations. We identify 12 new roAp stars. Among... Read More about TESS Cycle 1 observations of roAp stars with 2-min cadence data.

Ground-based Transmission Spectroscopy with VLT FORS2: Evidence for Faculae and Clouds in the Optical Spectrum of the Warm Saturn WASP-110b (2021)

We present a ground-based optical transmission spectrum for the warm Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-110b from two transit observations made with the FOcal Reducer and Spectrograph on the Very Large Telescope. The spectrum covers the wavelength range from...

KIC 5950759: a high-amplitude δ Sct star with amplitude and frequency modulation near the terminal age main sequence (2021)
Journal Article
M. Bowman, D., Hermans, J., Daszyńska-Daszkiewicz, J., L. Holdsworth, D., Tkachenko, A., J. Murphy, S., Smalley, B., & W. Kurtz, D. (2021). KIC 5950759: a high-amplitude δ Sct star with amplitude and frequency modulation near the terminal age main sequence. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 504(3), 4039-4053. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab1124

Amongst the intermediate mass pulsating stars known as d Sct stars is a subset of high-amplitude and predominantly radial-mode pulsators known as high-amplitude d Sct (HADS) stars. From more than 2000 d Sct stars observed by the Kepler space mission,...
