Scientific paper

We have examined the previously understudied δ Scuti stars V966 Herculis and V1438 Aquilae. We find that V966 Her is a stable pulsator with a refined period of 0.1330302 days with a full V amplitude of 0.096 mag. We also find that V966 Her has an average radial velocity of +7.8 km s-1, a full radial velocity amplitude of 7.6 km s-1, and a vsini=63.8 km s-1. For V1438 Aql we report a revised Hipparcos period of 0.1612751 days with a full amplitude of 0.056. The average radial velocity is found to be -43 km s-1, with full amplitude of 9.7 km s-1, and a vsini=76.7 km s-1. Due to some anomalies seen in V1438 Aql we feel that a much larger photometric and spectroscopic campaign is required to determine the true nature of this star.
