Whole Earth Telescope observations of the helium interacting binary PG 1346+082 (CR bootis)
(1997) [Journal article]We present our analysis of 240 hr of white-light, high-speed photometry of the dwarf nova-like helium variable PG 1346+082 (CR Boo). We identify two frequencies in the low-state power spectrum, at 679.670±0.004 μHz and ... -
Whole Earth Telescope observations of the hot helium atmosphere pulsating white dwarf EC 20058−5234
(2008) [Journal article]We present the analysis of a total of 177 h of high-quality optical time-series photometry of the helium atmosphere pulsating white dwarf (DBV) EC 20058−5234. The bulk of the observations (135 h) were obtained during a WET ... -
Whole earth telescope observations of the interacting binary white dwarf v803 cen in its low state
(1990) [Journal article]Using a network of observatories in the southern hemisphere, high-speed photometry of the interacting binary white dwarf (IBWD) V803 Cen in its low state is presented. Because of the faintness of the system, the 1611-s ... -
Whole earth telescope observations of the pulsating hot white dwarf PG 1707+427
(2004) [Journal article]We report on the analysis of multisite time-series photometry of the pulsating pre-white dwarf (GW Vir star) PG 1707+427, obtained by the Whole Earth Telescope collaboration. This is the last of the known GW Vir stars ... -
Whole Earth Telescope observations of the pulsating subdwarf B star PG 0014+067
(2006) [Journal article]PG 0014+067 is one of the most promising pulsating subdwarf B stars for seismic analysis, as it has a rich pulsation spectrum. The richness of its pulsations, however, poses a fundamental challenge to understanding the ... -
Whole Earth Telescope observations of the subdwarf B star KPD1930+2752 : a rich, short-period pulsator in a close binary
(2011) [Journal article]KPD 1930+2752 is a short-period pulsating subdwarf B (sdB) star. It is also an ellipsoidal variable with a known binary period of 2.3 h. The companion is most likely a white dwarf and the total mass of the system is close ... -
Whole Earth Telescope observations of the white dwarf G29-38 : phase variations of the 615 second period
(1990) [Journal article]Using an extensive set of high-speed photometric observations obtained with the Whole Earth Telescope network, we show that the complex light curve of the ZZ Ceti (DAV) star G29-38 is dominated by a single, constant amplitude ... -
Whole Earth Telescope observations of V471 Tauri : the nature of the white dwarf variations
(1992) [Journal article]We have conducted time-series photometric observations of the binary star V471 Tauri using the Whole Earth Telescope observing network. Our purpose was to determine the mechanism responsible for causing the 555 and 277 s ... -
Whole-genome sequencing-based characterization of Streptomyces sp. 6(4) : focus on natural product
(2023) [Journal article]We have sequenced the whole genome of Streptomyces sp. 6(4) isolated from tomato roots that presents antifungal activity against phytopathogenic fungi, mainly Bipolaris sorokiniana. The genome has almost 7Mb and 3368 ... -
