TmzV868 We have received a notification from GCVS Dr. Samus, that the proposed identification of TmzV868 looks incompatible with the proposed classification. It would be likely that the object may not be a Mira-type object as originally supposed. Information attached: > > Working on the final draft of the forthcoming Name-List No. 77, I came > > across the case of Tmz V868, announced as a possible Mira on November > > 6, 2001. The discovery announcement identifies it with the USNO A1.0 star > > at 01h47m57s.596 +56deg17'36".85 (2000). The star is between GSC 3692.2365 > > (which is actually also IRAS PSC 01446+5602) and GSC 3692.946. > > Looking at the backlog, Takamizawa indeed gave a special comment regarding > this case, that the new variable is between these GSC stars listed above. > The supposed Mira classification by Takamizawa was probably from the apparent > large amplitude. It may be possible that the classification was wrong. > > Regards, > Taichi Kato
