Hardback. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 132 pages, 36 black & white illustrations, 25 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PGM; PHVB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 10. Weight in Grams: 391.
This book, which is a reworked and updated version of Steven Bloemen's original PhD thesis, reports on several high-precision studies of compact variable stars. Its strength lies in the large variety of observational, theoretical and instrumentation techniques that are presented and used and paves the way towards new and detailed asteroseismic applications of single and binary subdwarf stars. Close binary stars are studied using high cadence spectroscopic datasets collected with state of the art electron multiplying CCDs and analysed using Doppler tomography visualization techniques. The work touches upon instrumentation, presenting the calibration of a new fast, multi-colour camera installed at ... Read more
