Descripción
V582 Aur is a pre-main-sequence FU Orionis type eruptive star, which
entered a brightness minimum in 2016 March due to changes in the
line-of-sight extinction. Here, we present and analyze new optical B, V,
R C , and I C band multiepoch observations and
new near-infrared J, H, and K S band photometric
measurements from 2018 January–2019 February, as well as publicly
available midinfrared Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) data.
We found that the source shows a significant optical–near-infrared
variability, and the current brightness minimum has not completely
finished yet. If the present dimming originates from the same orbiting
dust clump that caused a similar brightness variation in 2012, then our
results suggest a viscous spreading of the dust particles along the
orbit. Another scenario is that the current minimum is caused by a dust
structure, that is entering and leaving the inner part of the system.
The WISE measurements could be consistent with this scenario. Our
long-term data, as well as an accretion disk modeling hint at a general
fading of V582 Aur, suggesting that the source will reach the quiescent
level in ∼80 yr.
