Abstract

CH Cyg is a binary (P∼5750 days) consisting of a normal M6-7 giant and an unseen companion. During active phase its spectrum is similar to that of a symbiotic star - the strong B-A continuum and numerous low-excitation emission lines dominate the visual and UV spectrum. The last outburst, started in 1977, is conspicuous by the highest brightness level observed since monitoring begun in 1935. In mid 1984, a drop in brightness was accompanied by large continuum and emission line changes and correlated with a radio outburst and two expanding jets appearance (Taylor et al. 1985).
