CoRoT is a space telescope which aims at studying internal structure of stars and detecting extrasolar planets. We present here a list of transits detected in the light curves of stars observed by CoRoT in two fields in the anti-center direction: the LRa03 one observed during 148 days from 3 October 2009 to 1 March 2010 followed by the SRa03 one f…

We present an on-going study of CoRoT 102931335. Our preliminary results indicate that the target is an eclipsing binary system with an orbital period of $3{.\!\!\vphantom{0}^{\mathrm{d}}}979$ and a primary component pulsating in the frequency range 0.6–0.8 c/d. The resu…

HR 7349 is a bright [V=5.8] red giant observed by CoRoT in the seismofield of the first long run. The outstanding CoRoT light curve allowed the detection of several solar-like oscillation modes (both radial and non-radial). On top of these seismic constraints, our observational knowledge on HR 7349 benefits as well from a precise parallax and deta…

CoRoT observations of the young open cluster Dolidze 25
DOI: 10.1007/s10509-009-0189-1 Bibcode: 2010Ap&SS.328..119R

We present some preliminary results based on the CoRoT observations of the young distant cluster Dolidze 25. The light curve for the 28 stars observed by the satellite have been analyzed and the relevant periodogram presented. As a result we have found two binary, three Pulsating Be, three SPB, two Spotted and one ellipsoidal variables. Noteworthy…
