List of stars that have unusual dimming periods
Stars that dim in an odd way
Artist's concept of an "uneven ring of dust " orbiting KIC 8462852, also known as Tabby's Star
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]
The listing here is ordered alphabetically.
