The Vega Project, Part I (Abstract)
Abstract
(Abstract only) Vega is a key target for spectrophotometric calibration, hence confidence in its constancy is of great importance. However, decades of claims and counter-claims in professional studies have left open the possibility that Vega is, at a significant level, a variable star. We present a plan for a new photometric study and some preliminary results.
