More frequencies of KUV 02464+3239
Preliminary results on KUV 02464+3239, a pulsating DA white dwarf are
presented. Located near the red edge of the DAV instability strip, KUV
02464+3239 shows large amplitude and long period pulsation modes. Up to now
only one mode was known from a 50-minute-long light curve. Our more extended
observations allowed the identification of three additional frequencies. The
presence of previously known harmonics were confirmed and weak subharmonics are
also noticeable at some parts of the light curve. This suggests the dominance
of nonlinear pulsation effects from time to time.Comment: 3 pages, 3 eps figures; has been accepted for publication in
