abstract
In this paper, the high-precision light curves of $Kepler$ target KIC 5950759 are analyzed. The Fourier analysis of the long cadence light curve reveals 3 independent frequencies. Two of them are main pulsation modes: F0 = 14.221373(21) $\rm{d^{-1}}$ and F1 = 18.337249(44) $\rm{d^{-1}}$. The third independent frequency $f_m$ = 0.3193 d$^{-1}$ is found in long cadence data with a signal-to-noise ratio of 6.2. A weak modulation of $f_m$ to F0 and F1 modes (triplet structures centred on F0 and F1) are detected both in long and short cadence data. This is the first detection of the modulation effect in a double-mode HADS star. The most possible cause of the modulation effect in the light curves is amplitude modulation with the star's rotation frequency of 0.3193 d$^{-1}$. The preliminary analysis suggests that KIC 5950759 is in the bottom of the HADS instability strip and likely situated in the main sequence. Spectroscopic observations are necessary to verify the true nature of the modulation terms.

Re-examining Super-Nyquist Frequencies of 68 $\delta$ Scuti Stars Utilizing the Kepler Long Cadence Photometry
Six frequencies in four delta Scuti stars are actually alias images of super-Nyquist signals, identified by re-analyzing Kepler long-cadence data with the sliding Lomb-Scargle periodogram.
