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.

Today’s authors have possibly found a new type of variable star in a class of massive supergiant stars.
The structure of oscillations in intermediate mass stars has eluded astronomers, until now.
Today’s authors use asteroseismology to glance inside stars with long-period variability.
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?
Is the gravitational constant really constant? Today’s authors investigate using an 11 billion year old star.
