description | Photoelectric observations of the neglected eclipsing binary VZ Cep were made on four night during the observing season of 1984 at Sobaeksan Astronomy Observatory. The UBV light curves were secured incompletely with the gap in 0.35-0.75 phases. From the observations three times of minimum lights were determined in three band-passes, which formed one weighted minimum epoch (JD Hel 2446009.0453). With our observations, and improved light elements for VZ Cep is determined using all the photoelectric and CCD times of minimum lights published so far. The (O-C) resid-uals calculated with our light elements show small varying scatters which cannot be negligible. From the analyses of all the times of minima with the Scargles(1982)period-searching and a curve fitting methods, we found possible periodic oscillations of the (O-C) residuals with the period of 1. y26 and the amplitude of 0.d0032. These results, however, have to be considered as a preliminary values until complete analysis for the minimum lights of VZ Cep with enough observational data. Future observations of this binary system are urgently prompted. |
