We present our analysis of photometry for the FK Com star HD 199178 (V1794 Cyg). The V-band light curves are used to restore the distribution of temperature inhomogeneities on the stellar surface. The spots on
the surface of HD 199178 are concentrated at two preferred longitudes separated by 0.5 in phase (180° in longitude). In addition
to the quasi-periodic switching of the most active area between these two longitudes, which occurs in cycles of 2.1–2.4 or
4.1 years, we suspect that the two active areas moved toward each other across the stellar surface, possibly merging into
a single formation. The detected cycle in the star’s brightness variations of about 8.0 years is also clearly visible in variations
of the star’s spottedness. Themagnetic activity of the FK Com star HD199178 is in many ways similar to that observed for the
prototype of this group. 相似文献

Active regions on the surfaces of the chromospherically active stars GSC 08923-01147 and GSC 08933-01802 are found by reconstructing
the surface-temperature inhomogeneities using the V light curves, obtained from observations performed during the ASAS-3 project. Up to one-third of the total observed area
of the stellar surfaces was covered by spots. In GSC 08923-01147, the spotted fraction decreased from 0.31 to 0.05 during
the observation period, while it varied within 0.2–0.3 during four years in GSC 08933-01802. The detected phases of active
longitudes tend to concentrate near two positions separated by about half a period. The active regions in GSC 08933-01147
became closer or further apart on a time scale of 4.8 years. The maximum separations of the longitudes Δφ
long were maximum when the amplitude of the brightness variability reached a minimum. During the transition of the star from a
minimum-brightness to an enhanced-brightness state, the longitude of the more active region switched. The brightness variability
of GSC 08933-01802 was more substantial (ΔV }~ 0.55
m
−0.06
m
). For some time, only one extended active region was present on the stellar surface, while two regions were usually present.
No switch of the active longitudes was detected. The more active region monotonically moved over the surface of the star,
causing the longitudes of the active regions to drift together. This monotonic change in the position of the more active longitude
ceased at the minimum of the brightness-variation amplitude. 相似文献

The activity of the K dwarf KIC 8429280 (TYC 3146-35-1) has been studied. Unique high-precision photometric observations of
this object obtained with the KEPLER space telescope suggest a pronounced amplitude modulation of the brightness of the star,
and have made possible the analysis of surface-temperature inhomogeneities. The evolution of active regions on the surface
of KIC 8429280 has been traced during 105 rotation periods. Evidence has been found for the existence of two active longitudes
on the surface of KIC 8429280, separated by approximately 180°. The motion of the active longitudes on the surface of KIC
8429280 is complex and unstable. At some times, the active regions moved together in longitude with the rotation of the star,
while they moved in opposite directions at other time. The less active region sometimes disappeared completely, and only one
active region was observed on the stellar surface. The area of the spotted surface S is 4% of the visible stellar surface for the adopted inclination of the rotation axis of the star to the line of sight, i = 60°. The periodicity for variations in S is no less than 90 d. The timescale for the change in the amplitude of the brightness variations is 30 d. Three epochs of
alternation of the active longitudes are close in time to three of four firmly established minima in the amplitudes of the
brightness variations. The results of the light-curve analysis for KIC 8429280 are compared to results obtained for the young
active solar-type star Corot-Exo-2, which has a similar light curve with a pronounced modulation. 相似文献

We used continuous observations with the KEPLER space telescope during 44.45 days to study the activity of the fully convective
low-mass M dwarf GJ 1243. The star’s rotational period is 0.593 days. Our precision photometry of GJ 1243 made it possible
to study its surface temperature inhomogeneities and follow their evolution. We find evidence for two active longitudes on
the surface of the star, separated by 203° in longitude or 0.56 in phase. The position of spots on the surface was found to
be very stable during the analyzed 74 rotation periods. Assuming that the rotational axis is inclined to the line of sight
by i = 60°, the total spotted area S is, on average, 3.2% of the total visible stellar surface, and increased by 0.7% in 100 days; if i = 30°, the area is S = 5.6%. The change in S is due to an increase in the area of the smaller active region. We compare the magnetic-activity features of GJ 1243 and
another fully convective star, V374 Peg. 相似文献

We use continuous 156-day COROT photometric observations of the F dwarf HD 181906 to analyze temperature inhomogeneities on
the stellar surface and follow their evolution. The analysis used the iPH code, which solves for the temperature inhomogeneities
in a two-temperature approximation without any assumptions about the shape or number of spots on the surface. For the first
time in studies of active regions and active longitudes, we find that the phases of the active longitudes on the surface of
HD 181906 are concentrated close to two systems of active longitudes. In each system, the active longitudes are separated
by 180°, with the shift between the systems being 100°. During the observing period, switches between the systems of active
longitudes occurred quasi-periodicly on a time scale of 30–35 day about two-thirds of the time, while these switches occurred
less frequently about one-third of the time. The positions of active regions switched either every 20–25 day or every 40–45
day. The periodicity of brightness and amplitude variations is of the order of 110 day. Variations in the spot coverage and
changes in the active longitudes have shorter time scales (about 55–75 day). All these parameters are variable on time scales
of 25–38 day. A wavelet analysis of the periodicity of the brightness variations indicates that all the above processes are
quasi-periodic; activity on all time scales became less pronounced in the last third of the observing period. 相似文献

We present the results of WBVR observations of the low-mass X-ray binary V1341 Cyg = Cyg X-2. Our observations include a total of 2375 individual measurements
in four bands on 478 nights in 1986–1992. We tied the comparison and check stars used for the binary to the WBVR catalog using their JHK magnitudes. The uncertainty of this procedure was 3% in the B and V bands and 8%–10% for the W and R bands. In quiescence, the amplitude of the periodic component in the binary’s B brightness variations is within 0.265

in W); this is due to the ellipsoidal shape of the optical component, which is distorted with gravitational forces from the X-ray
component. Some of the system’s active states (long flares) may be due to instabilities in the accretion disk, and possibly
to instabilities of gas flows and other accretion structures. The binary possesses a low-luminosity accretion disk. The light
curves reveal no indications of an eclipse near the phases of the upper and lower conjunctions in quiescence or in active
states during the observed intervals. We conclude that the optical star in the close binary V1341 Cyg = Cyg X-2 is a red giant
rather than a blue straggler. We studied the longterm variability of the binary during the seven years covered by our observations.
The optical observations presented in this study are compared to X-ray data from the Ginga observatory for the same time intervals. 相似文献

We present the results of multicolor photometry of the two spotted, short-period, late-type RS CVn stars BH Vir and WY Cnc. We have derived the parameters of the binaries’ components, and refined their masses, radii, and luminosities. A strong flare of WY Cnc was detected for the first time, and pre-flare variations of the star’s activity studied. Our observations and published data spanning 40 years are analyzed using a zone starspot model. We demonstrate that the spots are always concentrated near the equators and at intermediate latitudes, with maximum spotted areas as large as 29% for BH Vir and 21% for WY Cnc. The temperature differences between spotted regions and the quiet photosphere were 2300 K (BH Vir) and 1800 K (WY Cnc). The detected long-term brightness variations of BH Vir suggest the existence of an activity cycle with a probable period of 22 years. Both stars have starspots concentrated at two active longitudes separated by approximately half of the orbital period during all the studied seasons; these longitudes remained the same (0° and 184°) for BH Vir over 40 years, whereas they migrated in the direction of the stellar rotation at a rate of 3.8°/yr for WY Cnc, suggesting a cycle of 47 years for the migration of the active longitudes. 相似文献

Results of JHKLM photometry for the protoplanetary nebula candidate V1027 Cyg obtained in 1991–2008 are reported. In all bands, the brightness
variations did not exceed 0.2
m
. Estimated linear trends demonstrate no significant changes in the mean brightness and color indices of the object, with
the possible exception of the L-M color index, which showed a small decrease. A search for possible periodicities in the brightness variations yielded the
most probable period of 237d. A model for a spherically-symmetric dust shell has been calculated based on the photometric results supplemented with data
on the mid- and far-infrared fluxes. The estimated mass-loss rate of the star is 1.3 × 10−5

Long-term (1984–2008) JHKLM photometry for 254 objects is presented. The observations were carried out in the standard JHKLM photometric system using an original method and a modern IR photometer designed and built at the Sternberg Astronomical Institute.
Our program of studies included searches for and studies of relatively hot circumstellar dust envelopes. The most important
results obtained using these observations include the following. We have detected relatively hot dust envelopes in a number
of objects for the first time, including the RCB star UV Cas, RX Cas, several classical symbiotic stars, etc. A model has
been calculated for the dust envelope of FG Sge, which formed around the star as a result of several successive cycles of
dust condensation beginning in Autumn 1992. Several dust-condensation episodes have been traced in the envelopes of symbiotic
systems (CH Cyg, V1016 Cyg, HM Sge, etc.), as well as the role of the hot component in the formation of the dust envelopes.
We have established from variations of the IR emission that the cool components in the symbiotic novae V1016 Cyg and HM Sge,
and possibly CH Cyg, are Miras. The binarity of V1016 Cyg and HM Sge has also been firmly established. The variability of
a whole series of object has been studied, including the stellar components of close binary systems and several dozen Mira
and semi-regular variables. The ellipsoidality of the components in the RX Cas system (a prototype W Ser star) and the cool
component in the symbiotic systems CI Cyg and BF Cyg has been firmly established. We have obtained the first IR light curve
for the eclipsing system V444 Cyg (WN5+O6), and determined the wavelength dependence of the obtained parameters of the WN5
star. Analysis of the IR light curves of several novae indicate the condensation of dust envelopes in the transition periods
of Cygnus 1992, Aquila 1993, and Aquila 1995. The IR light curve of R CrB has been obtained over a long period and analyzed.
IR observations of the nova-like variable V4334 Sgr have been carried out over four years, over which the star passed through
four stages during its motion along its post-AGB evolutionary track; the star’s bolometric flux and optical depth of its dust
envelope have been estimated, and the structure and mass of the dust layer determined. We have analyzed the IR variability
of the symbiotic star V407 Cyg over 14 years, and found its cool component to be a Mira with a period of 745 days. The observed
pulsations and trend are associated with the luminosity and temperature variations of the Mira, as well as the optical depth
of the dust envelope. The size of the dust grains and mass-loss rate of the Mira have been determined. We have obtained JHKL light curves for the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151 over 23 years. The IR brightness of the galaxy grew from 1985 through 1996 (by
∼0.9
m
at 1.25 μm, ∼1
m
at 1.65 μm, ∼1.1
m
at 2.2 μm, and ∼1.3
m
at 3.5 μm), while the galaxy simultaneously reddened. The “cool” variable source in NGC 4151 was still in the active state
in 1998, although its luminosity had decreased by approximately 15%–20%. If the “cool” component of the variable source in
this galaxy is a dust envelope heated by the central “hot” source, it should be optically thin to the radiation of this source:
its mean optical depth is in the range 0.05–0.15. Emission from dust particles heated to temperatures of 600–800 K was observed
in the near IR at a distance of several parsecs from the nucleus during the period of activity in 1995–1998; the inferred
mass of emitting dust was 5–20 M
⊙. In 1994–2003, we observed a tendency for NGC 4151 to become bluer at 1.25–1.65 μm while simultaneously reddening at 2.2–3.5
μm. Beginning in Autumn 2000, the galaxy began to emerge from a minimum, which lasted from March 2000 through April 2001 in
the IR; a flare of the galactic nucleus was observed and followed in detail in the IR in this same period. We confirm the
IR variability of the nucleus of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068, which can be located in various stages of activity. The variability
of NGC 1068 is associated with a complex source. A periodic component has been detected in the J brightness variations of the oxygen Mira V2108 Oph; we have shown that this star is immersed in a fairly dense dust envelope,
and have calculated amodel for this envelope. We have calculated an (axially symmetrical) dust-envelope model for the carbon
semi-regular variable RWLMi with a density distribution characteristic for the “superwind” stage. This envelope model is able
to reproduce the observed fluxes over the entire observable spectrum, and displays a good agreement with the observational
data. The three hot supergiants V482 Cas, QZ Sge, and HD 338926 may be variable in the IR. Long-term photometry of eight planetary
nebulae in the near IR (1.25–5 μm) has enabled us to firmly establish the IR brightness and color variability of these nebulae
on time scales from several tens of days to six-to-eight years. We have analyzed long-term JK photometry of the X-ray binary Cyg X-1 (V1357 Cyg). Periodicity with a characteristic time scale of ∼11.5 years is visible
in the JK brightness variations of Cyg X-1 in 1984–2007, possibly due to periodic variations of the temperature, radius and luminosity
of the optical component of the binary with P ∼11.5 yr. Fourteen-year IR light curves of five RV Tau stars (R Sge, RV Tau, AC Her, V Vul, and R Sct) and the yellow supergiant
and protoplanetary-nebula candidate V1027 Cyg have been analyzed. A spherically symmetrical dust-envelope model has been calculated
for V1027 Cyg. 相似文献

Unique high-accuracy 33.5-day continuous photometric observations of the KOI 877 and KOI 896 systems are used to study their
surface inhomogeneities and trace the evolution of spots over two to three rotational periods. These systems are two of five
candidate multi-planet objects. We found evidence for the existence of two active longitudes on the surfaces of KOI 877 and
KOI 896, separated by 165° and 135°, respectively. The fraction of the surface area covered by the spots is similar to the
solar one, and comprises about 0.6–1.1% of the total visible surfaces of the stars. A switch of the active longitudes likely
occurred in KOI 877 during the observation period. Calculated maps of surface temperature inhomogeneities may be helpful for
more accurate derivations of the parameters of planetary systems. 相似文献

Photometric data covering 1994–2009, obtained at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory or retrieved from the ASAS and SuperWASP catalogs, were used to analyze the brightness variations of the rapidly rotating star V833 Tau, whose activity level is close to saturation. Combined with previously published results, these data represent for the first time all stages in the development of the star’s 19- year activity cycle. The photometric period and rotational-modulation amplitude for different epochs are determined, and the qualitative pattern of the spots is considered. The photometric period is close to the orbital period, but always exceeds it, indicating that surface inhomogeneities are located far from the equatorial plane. With the high spottedness of the star, reaching 28% at the cycle maximum, the rotationalmodulation amplitude is 0.05?0.1 m , and increases during the growth and decline phases of the 19-year cycle. The rotational modulation is due to spots with higher latitudes than in the case of the Sun, and concentrating on active longitudes. 相似文献

Continuous 123.87-day observations with the “Kepler” space telescope are used to study the activity of the fully convective,
low-mass M dwarf LHS 6351. The axial-rotation period of the star is 3.36 day. High-precision photometric observations of LHS
6351 enabled studies of its surfacetemperature inhomogeneities and their evolution. The difference in the longitudes of active
regions increased from 120° at the beginning to 207° at the end of the observations, for i = 60° (and from 156° to 198° for i = 30°). This variation of the locations of the spots on the stellar surface provides evidence for differential rotation of
the star. According to our estimates, the rate of displacement of the active regions is (0.006–0.014) ± 0.002 rad/day. Assuming
i = 60°, the total area of spots S decreased, on average, from 1.2% to 0.92% of the total visible surface of the star; if i = 30°, this area decreased from 1.8% to 1.0%. We compared manifestations of the magnetic activity of LHS 6351 with the properties
of the fully convective M dwarfs V374 Peg and GJ 1243, studied earlier. We derived the dependence of ΔΩ on the Rossby number
for these M dwarfs, and identified two groups of stars with differing mass and differential rotation. 相似文献

We have analyzed light curves from the MOST satellite for the two active dwarfs ɛ Eri and κ Cet. Our maps of the stellar surface-temperature inhomogeneities were obtained with no a priori assumptions about the shape,
configuration, and number of spots. We find variations of the surface-temperature inhomogeneities with time, also on time
scales about equal to their rotation periods. We consider a model of a spotted star with two types of surface inhomogeneities—spots
and related plage fields—and demonstrate that the best agreement between the theoretical and observed light curves is achieved
for small ratios of the plage-field area to the area of cool spots. This conclusion indicates that long-term brightness variations
of stars younger than the Sun are mainly due to variable spots on their surfaces, while the contribution from plage fields
becomes more significant for older stars. 相似文献

The photometric variability of the uniqueMdwarf flare star GJ 1243 (KIC 9726699) is investigated using the most complete set of observationalmaterial obtained with the Kepler Space Telescope. The analysis is based on 49 487 individual brightness measurements obtained during an interval of 1460 days (nearly four years). The periodicity of the brightness variations with the period Pphot = 0.59261 ± 0.00060d is confirmed. The temperature inhomogeneities on the stellar surface reconstructed from the light curve are used to drive maps of these surface-temperature inhomogeneities (of the filling factor f). The resulting maps are used to determine the positions of active regions. Analysis of the surface-temperature maps for GJ 1243 led to the conclusion that the positions of spots on the stellar surface displayed appreciable evolution during the analyzed time interval. The maximum value for the lower limit on the differentialrotation parameter ΔΩ is 0.0022 rad/day. This more accurate estimate of ΔΩ is lower than the values presented earlier by Davenport et al. [1] (0.0058 and 0.0036 rad/day), due to the more accurate account of variations in the positions of the most active longitude in the current study. However, the differentialrotation estimate obtained in [1] using a method based on fitting the evolution of spots using twodimensional Gaussian functions essentially coincides with the new estimate presented here. The fractional area of the total spotted surface S of the star during the observing interval considered varied from 7 to 2%. The amplitude of the brightness variability of the star slowly decreased, varying in the range 1.6?0.5%. Overall, the position of GJ 1243 in spottedness–age, spottedness–rotation period, and spottedness–Rossby number diagrams agrees very well with the general character of the dependences displayed in earlier studies of M dwarfs. 相似文献

An analysis of the activity of the Hyades M4.5 dwarf EPIC 210490365, K2–25 (2MASS J04130560+1514520), based on observational data obtained with the Kepler Space Telescope is presented. This dwarf has a Neptune-type planet. The continuous evolution of active regions on the surface of K2–25 is traced over 70 days. The brightness changes of the star display a fairly stable nature. The rotation period of K2–25 is 1.878 ± 0.030 day. Maps of temperature inhomogeneities on the surface of K2–25 are constructed for 37 sets of observations. All these maps show concentrations of spots at two longitudes, with more active region having the larger area. The total spotted surface area S is, on average, 2.6% of the total visible surface of the star. The estimated differential rotation speed of the star is ΔΩ = 0.0071 ± 0.002 rad/day. The positions of K2–25 in S–age, S–rotation period, and S–Rossby number diagrams are consistent with the general trends of these dependences established earlier for M dwarfs. The derived Rossby number for K2–25, Ro = 0.36, is used to estimate the star’s X-ray luminosity to be log(R X) = ?4.20. 相似文献

Analysis of individual pulses of the pulsar B0950+08 at 112 MHz has shown that giant pulses with intensities exceeding the peak amplitude of the mean profile at these longitudes by two orders of magnitude are observed at the longitudes of all three components of the mean pulsar profile (the precursor and two-component main pulse). The maximum peak flux density of a recorded pulse is 15 240 Jy, and the energy of this pulse exceeds the mean pulse energy by a factor of 153. Strong but infrequent pulses at the longitude of the first component (precursor) can reach peak flux densities of 5750 Jy, exceeding the amplitude of the mean profile at this longitude by a factor of 490. It is shown that the emission at the precursor longitudes is virtually absent when giant pulses appear at the main-pulse longitudes, and vice versa: the presence of giant pulses at the precursor longitude results in the absence or considerable attenuation of the emission at other longitudes. The analysis shows that the cumulative probability function of the pulse peak flux densities has a piecewise power-law form. The power-law index for pulses with intensities exceeding 600 Jy appearing at the longitudes of the main pulse in the mean profile varies from n 1 = ?1.25 ± 0.04 to n 2 = ?1.84 ± 0.07. The obtained pulse energy distribution also has an inflection at E > 3000 Jy ms and a power-law form with the same index. The distribution of the pulse intensities at the precursor longitude was obtained, and forms a power law with index n = ?1.5 ± 0.1. The studied properties of the pulses at various longitudes of the mean profile are interpreted in the framework of induced scattering of the main-pulse emission by particles of ultrarelativistic, strongly magnetized plasma in the pulsar magnetosphere. 相似文献

The heat capacity of gadolinium orthophosphate (GdPO4) measured in the temperature range 11.15–344.11 K by adiabatic calorimetry and available literature data were used to calculate its thermodynamic functions at 0–1600 K. At 298.15 K, these functions are as follows: C p 0(298.15 K) = 101.85 ± 0.05 J K−1 mol−1, S 0(298.15 K) = 123.82 ± 0.18 J K−1 mol−1, H 0(298.15 K)–H 0(0) = 17.250 ± 0.012 kJ mol−1, and Φ 0(298.15 K) = 65.97 ± 0.18 J K−1 mol−1 The calculated Gibbs free energy of formation from the elements of GdPO4 is Δ f G 0 (298.15 K) = −1844.3 ± 4.7 kJ mol−1. 相似文献

We analyze photometry of the dwarf nova MN Dra carried out using various instruments at four observatories on 18 nights between
May 20 and June 28, 2009. The observations cover a variety of activity states of the system: a superoutburst, three normal
outbursts, and quiescence. Analysis of the system’s light curve during the superoutburst decline reveals positive superhumps
that recur, on average, with a period of 0.105 days and are due to the direct apsidal precession of the accretion disk. These
are observed until the end of the superoutburst, but their period decreases at a rate of −24.5 × 10−5 of the period per period. Both the positive-superhump period and its derivative are in good agreement with estimates made
during previous superoutbursts. At the brightness minimum and in normal outbursts, MN Dra displays brightness variations with
a period of 0.096 days, whose amplitude is much larger during the brightness minimum (0.8
m
–1.5
m
) than during normal outbursts (0.1
m
–0.2
m
). We suggest that these brightness variations could be negative superhumps due to nodal precession of the oblique accretion
disk. 相似文献

V-band light-curves are used to reconstruct the temperature inhomogeneities on the surface of the young T Tauri star Par 1724.
The spots on the surface of Par 1724 are concentrated close to two preferred longitudes separated by 180° (0.5 in phase).
These results provide evidence that Par 1724 may be the youngest star fow which a switch of the active longitudes is detected. 相似文献
