+Streetbob Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 As I enjoy using spreadsheets and just love graphs, I have continued observing and measuring variable stars. I have managed to squeeze in quite a few sessions despite the poor weather, though I’ve had the added aggravation of increased lp because not only do I have to put up with someone's swirling multicoloured snowflake😩, a tree “stump” laden with bright white lights😠, Wollaton Hall have decided the best way to enjoy the stars is to swing search lights across the sky washing out everything🤬 (sorry rant over). Despite this I have got some good magnitude estimates. Using LibreOffice I have added to my light curves with a selection below. +RonC, +Glafnazur, philjay and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Glafnazur Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Nice work Doug, I must admit that variables are not something I have ever really observed. +Streetbob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Streetbob Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 Some variables do change over a night eg Algol, but it’s mainly a case of collecting data over many months to build the curves. I like to see how the curves grow during that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
