Chinese and Japanese Participation in B/Be Star Campaigns1
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
In the early 1980’s, astronomers at the Beijing Astronomical Observatory (BAO) entered a collaboration in a long term photometric observing project on Be stars which included about 30 stars. For example, in 1983 the group at BAO organized a multi-site campaign to measure the short term variability of EW Lac, KX And, KY And, o And, and LQ And. In 1989, 48 Per was selected to be one of the targets of MuSiCoS campaign in which many stellar astronomers at the BAO participated. In 1991, the Be group at the BAO joined a campaign on the prototypical nonradially pulsating B star, 53 Per. In 1992, French & Chinese astronomers proposed a joint campaign on o And and EW Lac. Astronomers in Japan are also active in Be star campaigns and in 1993-5 they organized several campaigns on few well known Be stars (ζ Oph, EW Lac, ϒ Cas, λ Eri and 28 Cyg).
