Photometric and spectroscopic study of the new FUor star V2493 Cyg (1608.05996v3)

Abstract: The recent results from photometric and spectroscopic study of the FUor star V2493 Cyg (HBC 722) are presented in the paper. The outburst of V2493 Cyg was registered during the summer of 2010 before the brightness of the star to reach the maximum value. V2493 Cyg is the first FUor object, whose outburst was observed from its very beginning in all spectral ranges. The recent photometric data show that the star keeps its maximum brightness during the period September 2013 - May 2016 and the recorded amplitude of the outburst is 5.1 mag. (V) Consequently, the outburst of V2493 Cyg lasts for more than six years. Our spectral observations showed strong variability in the profiles and intensity of emission lines especially for H alpha line. We expect that the interest in this object will increase in the coming years and the results will help to explore the nature of young stars.
