Hi CBAers,
Over the next ~5 days or so, Deanne and Christian will be studying TT
Ari intensively at radio (and likely other) wavelengths. At 11th
magnitude, it's the world's easiest target. I'll write when the exact
times of observation are known; but any pobservations over the next week
will be helpful.

Dear Joe
We have an AAVSO observing campaign on TT Ari over the next two weeks
(https://www.aavso.org/aavso-alert-notice-608 ). I was wondering if you
could alert the CBA to it please?
The campaign is to get high cadence, multi-wavelength observations of TT
Ari to determine the source of the flaring radio emission. In particular
we have two 4h epochs of VLA observations of TT Ari over 10-12 December.
The exact time and date are not set yet, and we will only know these two
days in advance. I will announce the time on the AAVSO campaign forum
and will let you know as soon as we know the exact time.
In particular, we are looking for strictly simultaneous photometry in a
range of bands (as high cadence as possible).
Thank you very much for your help.
Best wishes,
Deanne
