These stars are never ever getting back together!
Happy Red’s release week, swifties! Today we discuss a paper about RED giants, and how you can tell if they had undergone a merger or not!
UR: Using Gaussian Processes to Study Exoplanet Transits and Stellar Variability Simultaneously
In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, discover how Larissa Palethorpe finds a way to get more information out of transit light curves.
Discovering a new class of supermassive oscillating star with TESS
Today’s authors have possibly found a new type of variable star in a class of massive supergiant stars.
Understanding the music of Delta Scuti stars with TESS
The structure of oscillations in intermediate mass stars has eluded astronomers, until now.
Fundamental Oscillations: Understanding Variability in Long Period Variables
Today’s authors use asteroseismology to glance inside stars with long-period variability.
You Spin me Right Round: Stellar Rotation with Asteroseismology
All stars rotate, and stellar rotation can impact a star’s evolution greatly. However stellar rotation remains poorly understood. Can studying stellar pulsations shed light on this topic?
