[vsnet-chat 2971] Re: [vsnet 2012] EsB365 observations and request

[Brian Skiff <bas@lowell.edu>]

     Although Es.-B. 365 could go through dimming episodes like V Hya, for
instance, RCB stars are more typically rather hotter (G type), and are not
red outside of these events.  This star of course is an extremely red carbon
star, and is most likely to be either a slow variable of modest amplitude
(Lb in GCVS parlance) or perhaps a semiregular.  Feel free (even encouraged)
to prove me wrong!
