Description
PG 1351+64 is a bright radio quiet quasar (z = 0.088, mV ≅ 14). IUE observations obtained within few months in 1982 - 1983 showed variations in the 1200 - 2000 Å band up to a factor of 2. Since then the object has been monitored regularly. The observations of 1984 - 1986, including also archival data, have more than doubled the number of available spectra in the UV. In particular the source was found in its brightest state, both in the optical and UV bands, in 1986 February.

    Measuring Rotation Periods and Stellar Oscillations in Red Giants with TESS Data
    TESS is a powerful engine for studying stellar variability. However, it has been challenging to adopt methods used for other space missions, such as Kepler, to infer rotation periods and solar-like oscillation frequencies in TESS data. The availability of multiple sectors of data for most targets, improved stability, and the release of new
