[90.03] Monitoring High Amplitude Delta Scuti Stars with a Small Telescope

M. Ivanushkina , E.G. Hintz, M.D. Joner (Brigham Young University)

We're using a small aperture telescope and a relatively moderate time expenditure to obtain high quality CCD light curves of short-period variable stars. All data were obtained using 0.4 meter telescope, taking CCD observations in a standard V filter. Presented data are on 8 high amplitude delta Scuti stars (AD CMi, BS Aqr, CY Aqr, DY Her, DY Peg, EH Lib, XX Cyg, and YZ Boo) which are part of a larger ongoing project; monitoring a list of stars several times a year over the last decade, searching for variations in periods and/or pulsation amplitudes.
