Summary

Abstract Long-term and short-term multicolor photometric variations of the X-ray binary system Her X-1 (HZ Her) has been studied. We obtained new VRI observations of the system by using the 60cm Robotic telescope at the TÜBİTAK National Observatory (TUG) in 2018. Using newly obtained data, we modified the orbital period of the binary system with a neutron star component.
