List of stars that have unusual dimming periods

(Redirected from List of stars that dim oddly)

This list of stars that have unusual dimming periods is a table of stars that have been observed to darken and brighten and do not appear to be eclipsing binaries or intrinsic variables. It is based on studies searching for analogs of Tabby's Star.[1][2]

Artist's concept of an "uneven ring of dust" orbiting KIC 8462852, also known as Tabby's Star

The listing here is ordered alphabetically.

  1. ^ Assuming membership to Cepheus OB1
  2. ^ ASASSN-21js's temperature of 14800+4200
    −2800     K     lies within the temperature range for B-type main-sequence stars.[49]
