[vsnet-chat 3011] Re: Data request for TYC 8659-00702-1

[Brian Skiff <bas@lowell.edu>]

     The star Sebastian asks about is GSC 8659-0702 = CPD-58 4492 (which will
be the preferred name) = CoD-58 4730.  It was recorded in a pointed ROSAT
observation by Park & Finley (1996 AJ 112,693) as a possible T Tauri-type star,
and is apparently a fairly active x-ray source.  Thus the magnitude
discrepancies may in fact result from actual variability in the star.
The paper just cited gives no observations in the visible, so again it looks
as though new observations will have to be made to test this conjecture.
