The Blazhko Effect Of The Rr Lyrae Star Dr Andromedae, Kevin M. Lee, Edward G. Schmidt

Edward Schmidt Publications

We have obtained 551 new V and R observations of the RR Lyrae star DR Andromedae. Our data set is consistent with a primary period of 0.563118 days; however, the light curve of DR And cannot be well described by a single period. We conclude that DR And demonstrates the Blazhko effect with a Blazhko period of approximately 57.5 days.

The Blazhko Effect Of The Rr Lyrae Star Fm Persei, Kevin M. Lee, Edward G. Schmidt

Edward Schmidt Publications

We have obtained 615 new V and R observations of the RR Lyrae star FM Per. A period search identified a primary period of 0.489256 days; however, the light curve of FM Per cannot be well described by a single period. We conclude that FM Per demonstrates the Blazhko effect with a Blazhko period of approximately 122 days.
