[AZ-Observing] Re: Epsilon Aurigae

Jeff,

I plan to run an article on Eps Aur by Mike Simonsen in the next issue of
the NL. I'd be interested in your opinion once it runs.

Subject: [AZ-Observing] Epsilon Aurigae

Dear colleagues,

For those looking for an astronomy project, epsilon Aurigae is fairly 
easy and an interesting one. The star system is doing interesting 
things outside of its 27.1 year eclipse and the next 2 year eclipse 
start next summer. To help with projects and for general knowledge, 
Dr. Robert Stencel (University of Denver) and I have created a book 
"Epsilon Aurigae, A Mysterious Star System." It's 287 pages soft 
cover and is now available. It covers background information, 
history, recent observation, the past campaign (1982-1984) and the 
current campaign. Information on various techniques (photometry, 
spectroscopy, polarimetry and interferometry) is also provide. More 
information including ordering information can be found at:
http://www.hposoft.com/EAur09/Book.html

You are also invited to join the 2009 Eclipse Campaign. See:

Clear Skies!

Jeff
