V1490 Cyg multiwavelength campaign
Active Dates: Aug. 1, 2018 – Sept. 15, 2018
Abstract:
We have recently discovered that the young star V1490 Cyg (situated in the Pelican Nebula IC 5070) is periodically occulted by material in its circumstellar disk. Our light-curves indicate a period of about 32 days, and the obscurations are comparable to UX-Ori type eclipses. We will be conducting a six-week, high cadence, multi-wavelengths optical monitoring campaign (in BVRI) of this source to map out in high resolution the azimuthal distribution of the material in the disk around this young star.
Justification:
To fully map the azimuthal distribution of material in the circumstellar disk of V1490 Cyg, and to cover longitudinal gaps and account for potential bad weather at the observing sites.
