Analysis of Some Photometric Observations of Gamma 2 Velorum Obtained from the South Pole
Abstract
The authors discuss the results and analysis of 16 hours of continuous photometry of γ2Vel. Indication of a 1.26-hour period of variability in the He II and C III emission lines at 4686 Å and 5696 Å, respectively, is presented. Although such a period has not been reported by other investigators, recent theoretical studies indicate that such a period may have certain theoretical implications.
