Broadband photometry of bright stars: the first year of APTS at the F. L. Whipple Observatory.
Abstract
The authors present time series of broadband V, R, and I photometry. Time serial measurements of photometric variations of bright stars contain insight into the physical processes of stellar pulsation, winds, and mass loss in stars of a wide range of spectral type across the H-R diagram. Additionally, photometric variations in cool stars have signaled the presence of large starspots.
