The interacting binary white dwarf V803 Cen (AE-1).
Abstract
High-speed photometry of V 803 Cen was obtained at the SAAO Sutherland observing station during May and July, 1986. The mean B magnitudes for each run are presented. The data reveal rapid variability, with a dominant period of 1611 s. The 1611-s oscillation is not purely sinusoidal, and it is present over a range of system luminosity.
