Starspot imaging using VRI photometry
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Abstract
Recent progress on maximum-entropy imaging of stellar surface brightness distributions using VRI photometry and Doppler-broadened absorption line profiles is reported. VRI photometry generally provides tighter constraints on starspot configurations than does Doppler imaging (which requires the use of large telescopes). Observers carrying out long-term photometric monitoring programmes on spotted stars are urged to work in the VRI system, as well as the UBV.
