Scientific paper

EV Aquarii is a variable star which was formerly misclassified as a cataclysmic variable, but photometric observations and colour indices have since indicated that it is most likely a semiregular M giant. The authors of this paper have used self-correlation analysis and Fourier analysis to determine the variability profile of the star. Data from the AAVSO International Database, the All-Sky Automated Survey, The Amateur Sky Survey, and co-author Arne Henden were used. The period of variation has been found to be 123.6 days ± 2.1 days. The amplitude of this variation is not constant; it changes with time between approximately 0.4 and 1.0 magnitude. There were no indications of a longer secondary period, though there has been observed an instance of a transient period of variation on a shorter timescale of about 40 days. There was no evidence found of periodic variation of the color differences.
