Abstract
α Circini is the brightest of the known rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) stars. Previous observations of this star in photometry (Kurtz et al. 1994) have shown that it has one dominant pulsation mode, which is a pure oblique dipole mode (ℓ = 1) with a frequency of 2442 μHz (P = 6.825 min). Kurtz et al. (1994) measured the amplitude of the principal mode to be 2.55 mmag (Strömgren v).
