The star KIC 8462852 shows a very unusual and hard to comprehend light curve.The dip d7922 absorbs 16% of the starlight. The light curve is unusually smoothbut the very steep edges make it hard to find a simple natural explanation bycovering due to comets or other well-known planetary objects. We describe amathematical approximation to the light curve, which is motivated by aphysically meaningful event of a large stellar beam which generates an orbitingcloud. The data might fit to the science fiction idea of star lifting, a miningtechnology that could extract star matter. We extend the model to d1519 andd1568 using multiple beams and get an encouraging result that fits essentialparts of the dips but misses other parts of the measured flux. We recommendfurther exploration of this concept with refined models.
