I got curious to see what BAA DSS/VSS members had done on variable nebulae. Some are full papers and some are notes…
Apologies to anyone whose paper I have missed….
2005 Hind’s Variable Nebula – Hewitt
2012 PV Cephei and Gyulbudaghian’s Variable Nebula – Boyd
2015 Five Year light Curve of the Herbig Haro Ae Star PV Cephei – Boyd
2019 The Many Faces of Gyulbudaghian’s Nebula – Privett et al
2020 Update on PV Cephei and Gyulbudaghian’s Nebula – Boyd
2020 Brief Further Update on PV Cephei – Boyd
2022 Observations of V347 Aur and its associated reflection neb – Sargent
2022 R CrA and cyclic variations in NGC6729 – Evans/Privett
2023 Brightness variations in R CRA and NGC6729 – Privett/Evans
2024 Variable Nebula Report – Sargent/Privett
My plan is to write a paper on 347 Aur this summer and from Richard Sargent’s brief at the DSS meeting, it looks like he is working on one about Hind’s variable nebula – so thats probably 2 papers for the BAAJ in 2026.
Its not a great publication rate but it is respectable I think.
