UBV Photometry of 56 Ari: 1990-1994

R. E. Fried and S. J. Adelman

We report on five seasons of UBV photometry of 56 Ari obtained with the 0.4-m telescope of the Braeside Observatory starting in the fall of 1990. These observations were part of the data used by Adelman et al. (2001) to find the very slow decrease in the main period of this magnetic CP star and the secondary period of approximately 5 years. Comparison of the light curves obtained in different seasons even with the same telescope tend to show slight discrepancies.
