Kepler observations of Am stars
We present an analysis of high-resolution spectra for two pulsating Am stars in the Kepler field. The stellar parameters derived in this way are important...
Kepler observations of the variability in B-type stars
The analysis of the light curves of 48 B-type stars observed by Kepler is presented. Among these are 15 pulsating stars, all of which show low frequencies...
KIC 10449976: discovery of an extreme helium subdwarf in the Kepler field
Optical spectroscopy of the blue star KIC 10449976 shows that it is an extremely helium-rich subdwarf with effective temperature Teff = 40 000 ± 300 K and...
KIC 4768731: a bright long-period roAp star in the Kepler field
We report the identification of 61.45 d-1 (711.2 μHz) oscillations, with amplitudes of 62.6 μmag, in KIC 4768731 (HD 225914) using Kepler photometry. This...
Kilonova Seekers: the GOTO project for real-time citizen science in time-domain astrophysics
Time-domain astrophysics continues to grow rapidly, with the inception of new surveys drastically increasing data volumes. Democratized, distributed approaches...
Kinematic analysis of eagle simulations: evolution of λ<SUB>Re</SUB> and its connection with mergers and gas accretion
We have developed a new tool to analyse galaxies in the eagle simulations as close as possible to observations. We investigated the evolution of their kinematic...
Kinematical studies of the low-mass X-ray binary GRMus (XB1254-690)
We present simultaneous high-resolution optical spectroscopy and X-ray data of the X-ray binary system GRMus (XB1254-690), obtained over a full range of orbital...
Kinematics of Arp 270: gas flows, nuclear activity and two regimes of star formation
We have observed the Arp 270 system (NGC 3395 and NGC 3396) in Hα emission using the Galaxy Hα Fabry-Perot spectrometer on the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope...
Kinematics of globular cluster systems and the formation of early-type galaxies
We numerically investigate the kinematic properties of globular cluster systems (GCSs) in E/S0 galaxies formed from dissipationless merging of spiral galaxies...
