Abstract

(Abstract only) The SX Phe-type variable star CY Aquarii was observed for two nights in September and October of 1997, using a 12-cm Astrograph and a Lynxx 2000 CCD camera. Using the IRAF program to reduce the images, and Matlab to analyze the data, the photometry of the two nights was combined and a curve fit to the data resulting in a period of 1.453 + 0.025 hours.
