The enigmatic WN8 stars: Intensive photometry of four southern stars on time scales from 30 min to 3 months
We present the first results of an extensive photometric study of themost intrinsically variable Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars: the WN8 subclass.Some 375 individual differential observations of WR16 and WR40 wereobtained over a contiguous interval of approximately 3 months in anarrow visual continuum bandpass. Over the same interval, we obtainedroughly 200 broadband V observations of the fainter WN8 stars WR66 andWR82. All four WN8 stars show significant random variability on timescales of hour to approximately a day -- probably related to thestochastic formation, propagation, and decay of emitting/scatteringinhomogeneities in the winds. Unlike for WR66 and WR82, the photometricbehavior of WR16 and WR40 is more deterministic with approximately twopossible periods in the range approximately 2-30 days -- possiblyrelated to some kind of Luminous Blue Variable (LBV), binary, orrotation phenomenon. In addition, WR82 shows a possible secular declineduring the 3 months and WR66 reveals a clear periodicity of 3.51 h. Thisshort period may be related to nonradial pulsations or a spiral-inbinary process invoking a low-mass, compact companion as seen in themassive x-ray binary Cyg X-3, a WN7 + c system of period 4.8 h.

This paper presents the catalog of photometric data in the Stromgrensystem obtained during the first four years (October 1982 - September1986) of the Long-Term Photometry of Variables (LTPV) program at ESO.The data are available in computer-readable form.
