Identification and classification of TESS variable stars

Abstract: Visual classification of the variability classes of over 120,000 Kepler, K2 and TESS stars is presented. The sample is mainly based on stars with known spectral types. Since variability classification often requires the location of the star in the H--R diagram, a catalogue of effective temperatures was compiled. Luminosities were estimated from Gaia DR3 parallaxes. The different classes of variable found in this survey are discussed. Examples of light curves and periodograms for common variability classes are shown. A catalogue of projected rotational velocities is also included.
