SuperWASP observations of pulsating Am stars (2011)
Journal Article
Smalley, B., Kurtz, D., Smith, A. S., Fossati, L., Anderson, D., Barros, S. C., …Wood, P. L. (2011). SuperWASP observations of pulsating Am stars. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 535, Article A3. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201117230

We have studied over 1600 Am stars at a photometric precision of 1 mmag with SuperWASP photometric data. Contrary to previous belief, we find that around 200 Am stars are pulsating delta Sct and gamma Dor stars, with low amplitudes that have been mis...
