T1 - New Photometric Observations of P Cygni JF - Wolf-Rayet Stars : Proceedings of an International Workshop held in Potsdam, Germany, 1.–5. June 2015 N2 - We present the results of the new photometric observations of the famous hypergiant PCygni. New observations were obtained in 2014 using the 48 cm Cassegrain telescope of the Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory, Georgia. We reveal some interesting behaviors of the B,V,R,I light curves, and also report new results on the periodicity of PCygni's variation. The latter result is based on the analysis of the photometric data (U,B,V filters) collected at the Abastumani Observatory between 1937 and 1983.

T1 - P Cygni and its Observations at the Abastumani Observatory JF - Wolf-Rayet Stars : Proceedings of an International Workshop held in Potsdam, Germany, 1.–5. June 2015 N2 - We found original observations of PCygni by E. Kharadze and N. Magalashvili in the archives of the Abastumani Observatory. These observations were carried out in the period 1951–1983. Initially they used 29 Cygni as a comparison star, and all observations of PCygni were processed using this star. On the basis of their calculations, the authors decided that PCygni may be a WUMa type binary with an orbital period of 0.500565 d, but this hypothesis was not confirmed. The only observations that have been published in the Bulletin of the Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory were those of of 1951–1955. There are whole sets of observational data not only for PCygni and 29 Cygni, but in the majority of cases also for 36 Cygni in the archives. We recalculated all data (where it was possible) using 36 Cygni as a comparison star. We are presenting UBV light curves of the variable, and also observations made by V. Nikonov in Abastumani in the period 1935–1937 Y1 - 2015 U6 - http://nbn-resolving.de/urn/resolver.pl?urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-88389 SP - 353 ER -
