CN Orionis: Versuch einer lückenlosen Beobachtung des Zwergnovazyklus
Abstract
A mainly photometric observing program involving several sites was performed to find crucial arguments for one of the two currently discussed outburst models for dwarf novae. According to one of these models, a flash may be expected immediately before the dwarf nova undergoes an outburst. The problems and circumstances of such a worldwide campaign necessary for continuous monitoring from minimum to outburst stage are illustrated, and preliminary results are discussed.
