In most cases, the brightness of classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) varies in a complex manner (Parenago, 1954; Herbst et al., 1994; Ismailov, 2005; Grankin, 2016). It is possible that irregular disk accretion in stars of this type causes an inhomogeneity of the stellar surface, so that the star's axial rotation can provide quasi-cyclic light variations. However, in some cases, the amplitude of light variation exceeds 1 mag, and the time scale of observed variations can be quite large. Therefore, it is desirable to obtain as many photometric observations of such objects as possible in order to conduct research in each specific case. In this work, the results of photometric observations of two CTTS and one Herbig AeBe (HAeBe) star, acquired in 2016-2022, are presented.
The CTTS AS 205 A = AS 205 N (V866 Sco) is a star of the spectral
type K5 in a moderately bright (
) triple system. At an
angular distance of
from AS 205 N (corresponding to
180 a.u. at the distance of 140 pc), there is a low-mass
K7-M0 spectroscopic binary AS 205 S (Ghez et al., 1993; Prato et
al., 2003). Two stable periods (
and
) are observed in the AS 205N light curve
(Artemenko et al., 2010). The
period is a typical one for
CTTS and can be explained with the presence of cool spots on the
stellar surface. The phase diagram of the
period shows a
modulation of brightness and color, indicating the presence of an
additional cool source in the system. Since AS 205 N is about 2
times brighter than AS 205 S in the
band (Herbig & Bell,
1988), the observed brightness modulation
should be attributed to the main star. From the temperature and
bolometric luminosity relations (Andrews et al., 2009), the mass
of AS 205 N is expected to be about
.

V1082 Cyg (HBC 728) is considered a typical CTTS, with a distance
to the star of 660 pc. The brightness of the star is 13
3.
Due to its being relatively faint, this star remained poorly
studied. In the catalog by Herbig & Bell (1988), its number is
HBC 728. Grankin et al. (2007) found for the star an average
variability amplitude of 0
828. Percy et al. (2010), mentioning
the stars's photographic magnitude range 13
8 - 15
0,
determined the range of its periodic variations
,
the period being 22
. There is no accurate measurement of the
star's spectral type because of its strong emission lines. Its
average effective temperature is estimated as 5500 K.
The -band brightness of the Herbig AeBe star AS 310 (HBC 284)
is 12
52, and its variability is relatively poorly studied. No
periodical brightness variations were detected (Percy et al.,
2010). The spectral type of the star was determined as BIVe, with
effective temperature at 25800 K (Hernández et al., 2004).
CCD photometry of the program stars was performed at the
Cassegrain focus of the 60 cm Carl Zeiss telescope of the Shamakhy
Astrophysical Observatory. As a light detector, an FLI k CCD camera was used. The photometer is equipped with standard
filters. After the previous modification of the
photometer (Abdullayev et al., 2012, and references therein),
several of parameters of the system were improved. Since our
observations were obtained using the upgraded system, this paper
describes the new photometer+telescope system which is currently
in use.
The telescope, with an aperture of 600 mm and equivalent focal
length mm, has the scale in its focal plane
per mm. Considering that the pixel size is 9
m
and the number of pixels per side is 4096, the size of the useful
part of the focal plane is approximately
.
With the given pixel size, we get 0
247 for single-pixel
resolution. Depending on the seeing,
or
binning was used, corresponding respectively to 0
49 per
pixel and 0
99 per pixel. The total area covered by the
camera is approximately
, and the effective linear area
in the focal plane is
. Dark, bias,
flat-field calibration images were regularly taken during
observations.
To transfer the instrumental system to the international Johnson-Cousins system, transition coefficients were determined based on observations of Landolt standards (Landolt, 1992). Currently, standard star fields are listed in the European Southern Observatory (ESO) (https://www.eso.org/sci/observing/tools/standards/Landolt.html) directory. The fields with Landolt standards were selected so that the brightness of the standards located there was close to the brightness of the program stars.
Diagrams in Fig. 1 show comparison between the brightness of
standard stars and the instrumental brightness measurements
obtained in different bands. For each panel of Fig. 1, the
corresponding transition formulas and the reliability coefficient
of the approximating straight line are given. As can be
seen, the transition coefficients allow us to reduce the results
to the international system with a high accuracy.
The formulas for converting our instrumental system to the
international system are the following:
All reductions of the observations were performed using the MaxIm
DL software. Typical average measurement errors for individual
bands are
,
,
,
and
.
The results of our photometrical observations of the program stars are collected in Tables 1-3.
Of interest is the character of variations of the HBe star AS 310,
observed in 2016-2022. Figure 5 presents its light curves in the
and
bands obtained in our observations. The maximal
amplitudes registered in this time interval are
,
. Remarkably, the largest amplitude
was observed for AS 310 in 2018 in the
band. Unfortunately, at
that time we did not observed the star in the
band as
frequently as in the
band. Our observations show that, unlike
other HAeBe stars, AS 310 has an unusually large amplitude of
brightness variations, possibly due to the binarity or
multiplicity of the star. The star's activity was different in
different years of our observations. To clarify these findings,
additional long-term observations of the star are needed.
