VizieR Online Data Catalog: A-F type variable stars from Kepler (Bradley+, 2015)
Abstract
The Kepler spacecraft (launched on 2009 March 6) monitors the brightness variations of about 150000 stars in a 105 square degree field between Cygnus and Lyra. The observations were obtained with a single filter whose effective wavelength is close to that of the Johnson R filter. The magnitudes from this bandpass are referred to as Kepler magnitudes (Kp) in the Kepler Input Catalog (KIC, cat. V/133).
In our study, we select stars whose KIC parameters imply a location in or near the δ Sct and γ Dor instability strips, that is, late A to mid-F spectral types. We observed 2768 stars with Kepler as part of the Guest Observer (GO) program. (6 data files).- Publication:
