Welcome to the pages of
Beersel Hills
Observatory (B.H.O.)
Beersel Hills Observatory is a privately-owned astronomical (amateur)
observatory, dedicated to the study of variable stars and
visual double stars.
Variable stars are stars with changing brightness, caused by internal or
external processes in the star. This web-site will show you the different
projects we are involved in: CCD-photometry of
Delta Scuti Stars, Eclipsing Binaries and Visual Double Stars

Beersel
Hills Observatory is located in Beersel, a village
about 10km southwest of Brussels. Beersel is known for its medieval castle
and its fine beers: Geuze and Kriek (a fruitbeer we can highly recommend)
Our present observatory was founded in april 1998. Before that date,
observations were carried out from another site but with the same
instruments.
|
We are cooperating with professional astronomers and fellow amateur
astronomers to observe Delta Scuti Stars
and Eclipsing Binary Stars. Our results are published in refereed
scientific publications. Have a look at the
list of publications we obtained
so far.
