Abstract:
A summary of results of the systematic UBV photoelectric monitoring of
bright northern Be stars carried out at the Hvar Observatory between
1972 and 1990 is presented. Altogether, 76 Be stars of all luminosity
classes were observed and 13848 UBV measurements secured.
Simultaneously, 9648 UBV measurements of 48 check stars (most of them
of early spectral types) were obtained. A careful transformation of
all observations into the standard Johnson system allowed detection
and monitoring of even very mild long-term light and colour variations
of these objects. Almost all early-type Be stars in the sample turned
out to be variable. For several stars phase-locked light variations
related to their binary nature were established. Sudden brightenings,
on a time scale of a few days, were detected for o Cas and QR Vul.
