Remarks: |
Our observations of GSC 2050-00745, an RRAB type variable star with strong Blazhko
effect
(Antipin et al., 2005), have been continued. Our CCD photometry was carried out at
the Crimean Laboratory, Sternberg Astronomical Institute, using
a Pictor 416XTE camera at the 50-cm reflector in 2006 and a SBIG ST2000XM
CCD camera at the 60-cm reflector in 2007. 127 V-band brightness measurements were
obtained on two nights
in 2006: July 25 - 26, JD2453942-43; and 218 measurements, on three nights in 2007:
July 11 - 16, JD2454293-98. The images were dark subtracted, flat-fielded and analyzed
with the aperture
photometry package developed by V.P. Goranskij. GSC 2050-00597 was used for comparison.
The phased light curve is given in the Figure. The V-band amplitude of pulsations
changes from 0.57m in 2006 to 1.34m in 2005.
Unfortunately, the Blazhko period still remains unknown.
