OHP practical workshops➢2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010: a growing interest ! International attendance.➢30-40 instruments, all with spectrographs !➢Different style
➢workshop Vs talks, need for some theory➢structured project Vs autonomous groups➢courses Vs star party
➢ … the optimal format is hard to find !

Exoplanet: tau Boo
The CCF is computed by using the spectral range 4400-6445 A (the Halpha line is excluded).The total velocity Doppler spectral amplitude shift represents only 1/25th part of the spectrograph resolution. The dataare collected between March 19-March 29, 2009.

Exoplanet: tau Boo
The final phase plot of Tau Boo (HD120136). The star is observed during 9 nights. The Doppler signature of planetary compagnon is clearly visible (the velocity error bar is estimated to +/-100 m/s).

Recent telegram...
Dear colleagues !Myron Smith, Computer Sciences Corporation, Space Telescope ScienceInstitute and my mentor in issues of gamma Cas, is asking for Halpha-EWobservations during the coming observation season.He and his colleague Greg Henry are very interested in correlationbetween Halpha-EW and photometric brightness within the UBV-system.Meanwhile they monitored the star in this way for 13 years (see fig. 3).Actually, I gave him the attached compiling plots (fig. 1 & 2) ofHalpha EW and visual brightness observations of my colleaguesin Hungaria and Germany.It would be great, if interested observers could measure the Halpha EWfor the coming months of visibility.Ernst Pollmann--------------------------------Active Spectroscopy in Astronomyhttp://www.astrospectroscopy.de ==> mag 2 star !

delta Sco : 2011 periastron !!!
• Exact periastron date unknown (around beginning of July 2011)• Radial Velocity will change drastically few weeks before• Monitoring of H alpha is key• Monitoring of He I 6678 is very interesting too
==> amateur Spectroscopy is required !!!
