For search and photometry of new variable stars, we applied VaST software by Sokolovsky and Lebedev (2005). ... During the first observing season (2009 May 16 2009 July 24), the star experienced an optical burst with an amplitude exceeding 1 m .5. ...

... The scheduling routines assist in creating an observing list (stored in the startable) from scratch or from another list stored on disk, and computing the visibility of the stars in a specific night and array configuration. The date of observation is taken from the variable date , and the array name from the variable systemid . If these are not defined, defaults are used for date (the next night) and for array (NPOI). ... addstar , stars _char Add one or more stars to the startable. ...

... Actual stars are expected to be more complicated than these simulations. ... The spot may be entirely visible most of the time (one would observe a prolonged flux minimum low), and then part of it may disappear over the horizon briefly and then return (slow rise and then fall back to constant level). ... With the set of observations taken here, I have information available from several comparison stars and color information. ... The period found must be consistent with the data from any given night....

ARCSAT ID NUMBER: AS07 DESCRIPTIVE TITLE: Census of Variable stars in the UMi dwarf spheroidal galaxy. ... BRIEF SCIENCE JUSTIFICATION: The classical dwarf spheroidal galaxy Ursa Minor contains a large number of variable stars, particularly of the RR Lyrae and anomalous Cepheid types. ... The photometry will be done with DAOPHOT, much like the Nemec study, and the analysis of the RR Lyrae population will be similar to the work done with the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Kinemuchi et al. ...

... In order to disentangle the effects of different climate variables on tree-ring growth rates of different species, and to explore the possibility that more than one species could improve the accuracy of the reconstructions of climate using tree rings, a methodical study of trees in close proximity to the Armagh Observatory climate station was initiated together with Ana Maria Garc?a Su?rez, and continued as part of the latter's PhD thesis with John Butler and Professor Mike Baillie (QUB). ...

... Second, the observatory can control the configuration, test data analysis procedures, and provide calibration solutions with the help of instrument models. This paper presents the VLT object-oriented framework for the development of ETCs (Exposure Time Calculators) and data simulators. ... Instrument simulations are being developed for the purpose of predictive calibration, instrument configuration control, and evaluation of data analysis procedures. ...
