[Taichi Kato <tkato>]

New Haseda variable (HadV48)

   Katsumi Haseda (Aichi, Japan) reports the discovery of a new variable
star (HadV48).

Some information:

[from vsnet-alert 4585] : (some parts relevant to the earlier wrong
                           identification)
The present light variation may be more signatures of a previously
unrecognized R CrB-type variable star currently entering a decline.
Further observations, including spectroscopy, are urgently requested to
clarify the nature of the object.

[From vsnet-alert 4610]
The new variable by Haseda, which showed a sudden fading as in the initial
report, is identified with

   GSC6870.614 183330.78 -285851.2 (2000.0) 11.56 6
   = TYC2-6870.614.1 (V=11.38, B-V=1.08)

, which has a moderate Tycho color and no IRAS identification.  This star
apparentlt needs to be urgently observed to confirm the nature of the fading.
