Binarity and Pulsation: What do low-frequency peaks in the Fourier Diagram tell us?

Author(s)

Abstract

We examine the origins of low frequencies observed in the photometric variations of some stellar pulsators. These include both nonbinary and binary effects such as systematic observational or instrumental effects, stellar rotation, combination frequencies, tidal distortions, self-excited as well as tidally induced gravity-mode pulsation.
