[vsnet-chat 632] V1147 Cyg

[Chris Lloyd <cl@ast.star.rl.ac.uk>]

I am trying to organise a short observing campaign on V1147 Cyg. CCD
photometry shows an eclipse of about 0.7 mag, the star is normally at 
V ~ 11.5, lasting 5 hours. Several estimates of the period have been 
published but they are all wrong. What we need are some visual observers, 
who can reach at least V = 12, and who might be interested in looking at 
this star for perhaps a month or so. The observers need to be distributed 
around the globe to obtain maximum coverage. Observers on the Pacific rim 
and Hawaii would be particularly valuable. If any eclipsing binary 
observers are interested you can find further details, finding charts 
etc., on my web page
