C8 Light Curve
You have discovered a Cepheid! Note this star does not appear to vary
much. Ferrarese et al. (1996) named this Cepheid C8. Below is
their plot of C8's light curve. On Part I, Section B of your lab
sheet, record the name of the Cepheid, its grid section number (73),
its average apparent V magnitude
(mv), and its period
(P). (Careful: the numbers decrease going up the vertical axis!)
When you're done, return to the main grid section
73 page, or return to the main
WF4 8x8 grid. There are no other known Cepheids in this grid
section.
