Abstract

Sixty-five visual observations of the W Viginis type Cepheid TW Capricorni obtained during 1978-1979 are reduced to a common cycle and the time of maximum light determined. Characteristics of the light curve are discussed, and a compilation of the historical times of maximum is presented, indicating changes of period.
