Untersuchungen über die Perioden- und Lichtkurvenänderungen von kurzperiodiscen Delta Cephei-Sternen IX. RV Ursae Maioris

No. 34
Budapest, 1957

Abstract

From May 1955 till July 1957 1008 photoelectric observations were made of the light-variation of the cluster-type variable RV UMa at the Budapest Observatory. The photometer was attached to the 24" reflector. It is shown that the amplitude of the lightcurve is strongly variable (Figure 2). The variations can be accurately described by the combination of the fundamental period of 0,4680d with a secondary period of 90,1d. The same periods are apparent in the photographic observations by Scharanow, Subbotin and Jordan, further in the visual observations by Blaschko, Luizet, Nijland and Judkina. From all these observations we were able to construct the O-C diagrams for both periods (Fig. 12). These diagrams contain cycles of the same length, but of opposite phase.
