DY Persei
DY Persei is a variable star and carbon star in the Perseus constellation. At maximum it is 11th magnitude and at its faintest it drops to 16th magnitude. DY Persei is the prototype of the very rare DY Persei class of variables that pulsate like red variables but also fade from sight like R Coronae Borealis variables. Location DY Persei is located on the outskirts of the Trumpler 2 open cluster, near the famous Double Cluster. At 1,500 pc, DY Persei is thought to be much further away than Trumpler 2 and not a member. Variability DY Persei was reported to be variable in 1947. It was initially classified as a semiregular variable star with a brightness range of magnitude 10.6 to 13.2 and an approximate period of 900 days. Further study revealed that it showed deep declines every few years as well as continuous variations with a rough period of 792 days. The deep declines were considered to be related to the declines seen in R CrB stars, but DY Persei was a unique e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

DY Persei variables are a subclass of R Coronae Borealis (R CrB) variables. They are carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars that exhibit pulsational variability of AGB stars and irregular fades similar to R CrB stars. The star DY Persei DY Persei is a variable star and carbon star in the Perseus constellation. At maximum it is 11th magnitude and at its faintest it drops to 16th magnitude. DY Persei is the prototype of the very rare DY Persei class of variables that p ... is the prototype of this tiny class of variable stars. Only DY Persei itself was known in our galaxy until 2008 when systematic catalogue searches for R CrB variables discovered a 17th magnitude (at maximum) example. Since then automated searches have confirmed another four, including one of magnitude 5.9 at maximum. There are also several candidates that have not yet been observed to fade, and several DY Per stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Although DY Persei variables have bee ...
