Support for VLT spectroscopy of the novalike variable VY Scl
Active Dates: Nov. 11, 2008 – Nov. 11, 2008
Abstract:
Dr. Steve Howell has been awarded time to obtain spectroscopic observations of the cataclysmic variable VY Scl with the Very Large Telescope in Chile. These observations are being sought during VY Scl's current deep minimum.
Justification:
These observations are being sought during VY Scl's current deep minimum, which began some time before 2008 September 20 (JD 2454730).
