The evolution of rapid oscillations in an outburst of a dwarf nova.
Abstract
High-speed photometric observations of the dwarf nova AH Her on nine consecutive days during an outburst have been made, and rapid coherent oscillations on every day except two near maximum light have been detected. The period, amplitude, and luminosity for each day is presented and the progression of the periods is discussed.
