Scientific paper
We report the detection in the visible of the companion of the FU Orionis star Z Canis Majoris discovered in the infrared by Koresko et al. (???). At 730nm and 656nm, the companion of Z CMa appears to be much brighter than predicted by the model of Koresko et al. (???). We argue that the excess flux in the visible is due to scattered light from the companion. This interpretation agrees with the results of the spectropolarimetric study of the Z CMa system by Whitney et al. (???).
