Abstract

The A5 dwarf star ? Pictoris has been subject of numerous studies because it addresses several questions of stellar astrophysics, like stellar evolution, circumstellar disks, planet formation and pulsations. With V = 3.86 mag, it falls within the observable magnitude range of BRITE and is a promising target for this space mission.
