New measurements and analysis of the \b{eta} Cephei star V909 Cassiopeiae
V909 Cas is a little-studied example of a \b{eta} Cep pulsating variable located in the OB association Cas OB8 in the Perseus spiral arm of the Milky Way. Photometric observations in 2016-7 provided 30 new times of pulsation extrema and enabled its mean pulsation period to be determined as 0.2067798(1) d. From spectroscopic observations we determined its interstellar extinction and absolute magnitude and luminosity, and located it with other \b{eta} Cep stars in the OB instability region of the H-R diagram.
