Scientific paper

BY Cam (=H0538+608), a very erratic member of the AM Herculis-type binaries also known as polars, was observed at the University of Arizona 40-inch telescope, with the Sonoma State University Astrolink CCD camera for six nights during November 1991. Two additional nights of CCD photometry were obtained during September 1992 at the Sonoma State Observatory, with the 25-cm Epoch Automated Telescope and SSU Astrolink CCD camera. These data comprise one of the most extensive sets of photometry acquired for this object. We will present the results of these observations, and discuss their relevance towards the further determination of some of the system's parameters. This work has been supported by a California State University Pre-Doctoral Award and Pre-Doctoral Summer Internship Award, and a Grant-In-Aid from the Sigma Xi Scientific Research Society.
