Scientific paper

New observations are used to test the report that some, and perhaps all, Am stars have variable energy distributions on a long time scale. The data confirm that Tau UMa and 15 Vul now have energy distributions which are significantly different from those observed in 1965. Comparing with published scans and Stromgren photometry it is found that, at least for Tau UMa, the change must have occurred rather quickly in 1965, rather than gradually between then and now. Most of the other Am stars on our program have been constant to within the errors. There do appear to be changes over a few nights in the energy distribution at wavelength not greater than 3636 A for 81 Tau, and these are similar to, but smaller than, the changes in Tau UMa.
