Photometric Light Curves for Ten Rapidly Rotating Stars in Alpha Persei, the Pleiades, and the Field
Abstract
We present the results from a photometric monitoring program of 10 rapidly rotating stars observed during 1991 using the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory (FLWO) 48-inch telescope. Brightness variations for an additional six cluster stars observed with the Lick 40-inch telescope are also given. The periods and light curves for seven alpha Persei members, two Pleiades members, and one nake T Tauri field star are report. The individual photometric measurements have been deposited with the NSSDC. (SECTION: Stars)
