Twenty eight main-sequence and 23 pre-main-sequence variables are found to be part of cluster Stock 8. The main-sequence variables are classified as slow pulsator of the B type, $\\beta$ Cep and $\\delta$ Scuti stars. Fourteen main-sequence stars could be new class variables as discussed by Mowlavi et al. (2013) and Lata et al. (2014). The age and mass of pre-main-sequence variables are found to be $\\lesssim$ 5 Myr and in the mass range of 0.5 to 2.8 M$_{\\odot}$, respectively. These pre-main-sequence stars could be T-Tauri variables. We have found 5 and 2 of 23 PMS variables as classical T-Tauri stars and Herbig Ae/Be stars, respectively, whereas 16 PMS stars are classified as weak-line T Tauri stars.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-06-18T10:52:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "short period variable stars", "young open cluster stock", "pre-main-sequence variables", "time series photometry", "herbig ae/be stars" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
