Detection of non-radial g-mode pulsations in the newly discovered PG 1159 star HE 1429-1209.

NAGEL T. and WERNER K.

Abstract (from CDS):

We performed time-series photometry of the PG 1159-type star HE 1429-1209, which was recently discovered in the ESO SPY survey. We show that the star is a low-amplitude (≃0.05mag) non-radial g-mode pulsator with a period of 919s. HE 1429-1209 is among the hottest known post-AGB stars (Teff=160000K) and, together with the known pulsator RX J2117.1+3412, it defines empirically the blue edge of the GW Vir instability strip in the HRD at high luminosities.
