Most Rotational Variables Dominated by a Single Bright Feature Are α 2 CVn Stars
We previously reported a rare class of variable star light curves isolated from a sample of 4.7 million candidate variables from the ATLAS survey. Dubbed “UCBH” light curves, they have broad minima and narrow, symmetrical maxima, with typical periods of 1–10 days and amplitudes of 0.05–0.20 mag. The...
