Marc macht meines Wissens nur Variable; dieses auf hohem Niveau und mit einem eigenen optimierten System/Algorithmus.
Hierfür verwendet er verschiedene sehr geeignete Optiken.
 
Hi,

I don't use any Algorithmus at all.
For many year I worked as a chartmaker for the AAVSO, USA and I have access to all kinds of high quality photometry (that is available to anyone if
you know where to find it).
So I made all the charts and sequence (which are the selection of the comparison stars) by myself.
It's right that I bought very very many telescopes over the years.
I started with astronomy in 1980 and I observe (only) variable stars since 1994.
Over all those years, I bought more than 400 telescopes.
In fact, a few minutes ago, I bought already a new one.
At the moment I think the APM 152 apo has to go.

Habs zwar noch nicht verstanden, aber dennoch Danke für die Erklärung. ;)
Weil ich es nicht verstehe, dennoch eine Frage.
Ist das "visuelles" Beobachten?
Gruß Klaus
 
Hi Klaus,

In my every observation report including the last one, you can read: Visual observations for June 28/29, 2022.

I don't use any tools, besides: telescope, mount, diagonal and eyepiece and my own eyes.

For an explanation of the data, see my message here in this thread of Nov. 13, 2020
 
Hab mir jetzt mal aus Interesse den ganzen Thread durchgeschaut und komme zu den Fragen:
Gibt es für dieses Thema eigentlich interessierte Leser?
Warum gehst du, Marc, nicht auf die gerade mal 4 Beiträge von über 200 ein, in denen geschrieben steht, das es quasi schade ist, das deine Beiträge nicht gerade auf reisendes Interesse stößt? Das es eigentlich "Perlen vor die Sä... geworfen" ist.
Ist dieses Forum der richtige Platz für deine Auswertungen?
Sind diese Werke auch in anderen Foren nachzulesen?
 
Good Morming,

Hi Marc, I fear nearly nobody here ist able to understand the observation-results you post here.

In Germany there ist "BAV" very active in observation of variable stars, perhaps IT would improve your interchange to contact them instead of posting here.

I'll add the link later that day.

Kind regards
Joerg
 
Hi Joerg,

I send my obervations to this website and also the VSNet at the University of Kyoto, Japan, where they have a big database.
With posting my observations here, I hope to trigger interest of more people to start variable star observing.

Rgds,
Marc
 
Hi Marc,

this is the link you find the very most activities concerning the observation of variable stars (and spectroscopy) in the amateur-scene in Germany, where this aspect of astronomy is more or less a small sub-scene.

-> BAV

Hallo,
Wie sieht das Ergebnis nach 7 jähriger Missionsarbeit hier im Forum aus?
Ich kann es mir nur sehr schwer vorstellen, seit 7 Jahre, mit stoischem trockenen Blick, mit über 200 Beiträgen, voll mit Zahlen und Buchstaben, das die wenigsten verstehen, ohne mal einen Nebenweg zu bestreiten, in dem man mal Bilder, oder was von der Arbeit zeigt/erklärt, Menschen zu begeistern.
 
Hi Marc,

as Klaus wrote, publishing only tabels of numbers will catch no enthusiasts for an objective nobody understands here.

Here we mostly discus visual observing, astrophotography and amateur telescope making or software-activities.

So, as I wrote in an earlier post, have a look at BAV, those people understand what you do, can interprete your data or - better - can tell you where they send their data to.

Your posts here are, not to misunderstand, senseless.

Kind regards
Joerg
 
OK I understood.
In the future I will simplify the presentation of my report, just putting name of variable and the brightness.
Will make things much more clearer for people not too much familiar with variable star observing.
I am just back out of the hospital, have 2 difficult months after me now, and many more hospital visits in the future.

Rgds,
Marc
