Abstract:
We present the results of a systematic search for pulsating components
in Algol-type eclipsing binary systems. A total number of 14 eclipsing
binaries with A-F spectral type primary components were observed for
22 nights. We confirmed small-amplitude oscillating features of a
recently detected pulsator TW Dra, which has a pulsating period of
0.053-day and a semi-amplitude of about 5-mmag in B-passband. We
discovered new pulsating components in two eclipsing binaries of RX
Hya and AB Per. The primary component of RX Hya is pulsating with a
dominant period of 0.052-day and a semi-amplitude of about 7-mmag. AB
Per has also a pulsating component with a period of 0.196-day and a
semi-amplitude of about 10-mmag in B-passband. We suggest that these
two new pulsators are members of the newly introduced group of
mass-accreting pulsating stars in semi-detached Algol-type eclipsing
binary systems.
Description:
We carried out CCD photometric observations for 22 nights from
December 2001 to December 2002, using a SITe 2K CCD camera attached to
the 61-cm telescope at the SOAO.
We changed the passband from V to B on January 2002 because δ
Scuti-type pulsators show the largest amplitudes in B-passband.
