Alert Notice 403: Request for observations of V2105 Oph in support of HST observations

August 30, 2009

 

Dr. Brian Espey (Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland) has requested photoelectric photometry and bright star CCD photometry of the semiregular variable V2105 Oph beginning immediately.  These observations are in support of ultraviolet spectroscopy to be obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope on Wednesday, September 2, 2009.  Observations are requested to continue through Sunday, September 6, 2009.

Alert Notice 405: Request for observations of NSV 99 (khi Peg) in support of HST observations

October 2, 2009
 

Dr. Brian Espey (Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland) has requested photoelectric photometry and bright star CCD photometry of the semiregular variable NSV 99 (= khi Peg) beginning immediately.  These observations are in support of ultraviolet spectroscopy to be obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope in late October and late November 2009. Observations are requested to continue through the end of November 2009.

AAVSO Bulletin 73 for 2010 - Stars in Need of Observations

                                      in 
    AAVSO BULLETIN 73:  Predicted Maxima and Minima of Long Period Variables for 2010

The stars listed below need additional observations. Please be aware that many of these 
stars are difficult to observe, and should be observed only by experienced observers. 
Please note that the symbol % after a star name indicates the star has fair to excellent 
CCDV or multicolor photometry but still needs visual observations.
