I observed with my friend Franco Mallia. I'm going to send the resulting dataset to Dr. Kato, as usual, for careful analysis. Because there is some debate on the behaviour of this star, I wanted to share with you the resulting lightcurve, posted at http://vsnet.bellatrixobservatory.org/v4641sgr.gif Please note that those few bad points in the C2-C1 light curve are due to a temporary drive problem with the telescope, so please disregard the corresponding points in the V-C1 and V-C2 curves. I'm sure Dr. Kato will comment about the curve's features, maybe with the help of additional data coming from other observers. Sincerely, Gianluca -- *********************************************************************** * Gianluca Masi "Two things fill the soul * * Via Madonna de Loco, 47 with awe and reverence [...]: * * 03023 Ceccano (FR) the starry sky above me and * * ITALY the moral law within me" * * e-mail: gianmasi@fr.flashnet.it * * web: http://vsnet.bellatrixobservatory.org I.
