A search for new γ Doradus stars in the Geneva photometric database
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a study of selected potential γ Doradus stars observed in the Geneva photometric system. Eleven stars were monitored at least during the last year of functioning of the 70 cm Swiss telescope at La Silla, leading to about one thousand photometric measurements and permitting a detailed analysis of these stars. After the analysis, five stars are thought to be constant stars. We report three new γ Dor stars. A spectroscopic campaign has been started at La Silla with the new 1m20 Swiss telescope, equipped with the spectrograph CORALIE, of which we show the results for the selected stars.

A Γ Doradus Star Campaign
We report on the results from a large photometric campaign on thirty five γDor star candidates undertaken at the Institute of Astronomy of the University of Leuven in the framework of the Flanders – South-Africa grant. An overview of the data, as well as the results of the analysis of the obtained time series are presented, the main conclusion being that nine stars are thought to be multiperiod...
متن کاملγ Doradus Stars: Defining a New Class of Pulsating Variables
In this paper we describe a new class of pulsating stars, the prototype of which is the bright, early, F-type dwarf, γ Doradus. These stars typically have between 1 and 5 periods ranging from 0.4 to 3 days with photometric amplitudes up to 0. 1 in Johnson V . The mechanism for these observed variations is high-order, low-degree, non-radial, gravity-mode pulsation. Subject headings: Stars: varia...

We report on observational results obtained for 78 objects originally classified as bona-fide or candidate γ Doradus stars. For the southern objects, we gathered echelle spectra with the spectrograph attached to the Euler telescope in 1998–2003 and/or Johnson-Cousins B, V, I c observations with the photometer attached to the 0.5-m telescope in 1999–2000. For the northern ob...
متن کاملOscillating Blue Stragglers , γ Doradus stars and eclipsing binaries in the open cluster NGC 2506 ⋆
Context. This is the first step in a project to combine studies of eclipsing binaries and oscillating stars to probe the interior of Blue Stragglers (BS). This may imply a way to discriminate observationally between different birth mechanisms of BS stars. Aims. We study the open cluster NGC2506 which contains oscillating BS stars and detached eclipsing binaries for which accurate parameters can...
متن کاملSurvey for Transiting Extrasolar Planets in Stellar Systems Iv: Variables in the Field of Ngc
The Survey for Transiting Extrasolar Planets in Stellar Systems (STEPSS) project is a search for planetary transits in open clusters. In this paper, we analyze the STEPSS observations of the open cluster NGC 1245 to determine the variable star content of the cluster. Out of 6787 stars observed with V < 22, of which ∼ 870 are cluster members, we find 14 stars with clear intrinsic variability tha...
