Something for tonight?
I was looking for a star for Michael K. in last nights data when I came
across one that varied 2 mag in a day. I turned out to by Y Psc. It is
good to know that the scheme finds variables that are known to exist.
I have switched to a mode that is intended to find longer period
variables. Michael, do you want to have a go at a speculation that might
be too long in period for a single night of observation? I will look for
the best one.
