GW Lib time scheduled for first HST observation
Active Dates: Aug. 28, 2017 – Sept. 17, 2017
Abstract:
This campaign focuses on the pulsating white dwarf-containing cataclysmic variable GW Lib. For the HST observations, AAVSO observations are essential to know the state of the system in order to ensure that the object is NOT in outburst when observed with HST.
Justification:
In order to ensure that the object is NOT in outburst when observed with HST. AAVSO observations made 24-30 hours before each HST observing time will be used to make a go/no-go decision, and will also be used in the analysis of the resulting data.
