Simon Jeffery has used a novel camera attached to the William Herschel Telescope (WHT) to obtain the best light curves ever obtained for pulsating subdwarf B stars. These stars pulsate non-radially in several modes with different frequencies and enable astronomers to establish their overall properties and internal structure with unusual precision. ...
