Dwarf Novae:Eclipsing Binaries, Eclipsing Binaries:Light Curves

Scientific paper

The weather at the beginning of the night April 29/30, 1979 was not excellent on La Silla: Most clouds were gone, but many of them were just waiting near the horizon and threatened to come back. After twilight I pointed the ESO 1 m telescope to the southern dwarf nova OY Gar, which is a faint variable star of about 16~. The first photoelectric measu rement, however, revealed 14~'8, a bit brighter than normal, and it seemed to brighten up rapidly. Of course, this is not unusual for a dwarf nova: OY Gar just was beginning one of its eruptions. lieft the telescope on the star monitoring it continuously in 3-second time intervals.
