KIC 9265722 Frequency Pairing

  • Uni2013a by Uni2013a

    I started to notice some consistence in the "noise" of this star, and after looking further here http://archive.stsci.edu/kepler/data_search/search.php it seems the star has numerous sets of almost identical in some cases, pairings of minor variations that sometimes are in the order of as little as 0.08 Days. Never have seen such harmonic cycles in a K type dwarf like this, and although the most significant peaks aren't cycled at an even mode the minor pulsations tend to often hold together in a stable manner.
