[Taichi Kato <tkato>]

TAV J1907+117

   According to THE ASTRONOMER Electronic Circular No 1633, Mike Collins
reporte a variable object, located at 19h 07m 27s, +11o 44' 09" (J2000.0).
The TA variable name TAV J1907+117 has been assigned.

   The object was reported to be at mag 10.9 on May 11.99 UT.  The object
may have been at 12.1 on Apr. 25, but the measurement may have been affected
by confusion.  According to H. Yamaoka (Kyushu University), the nearest
brightest star on DSS has an r=15.7, b=18.8, which suggests the variable
is a large-amplitude one.  The object is not in the IRAS source catalog,
and it may be possible that the object may be some sort of eruptive
object.  Further detailed observations are strongly encouraged.
