Re: (fwd) ASAS variables: identifications by Anton Paschke >and is only a few arcminutes from the position of NSV00712. But it >has an magnitude of 11.3 and NSV00712 is a bright star, magnitude 2.5 NSV 00712 = BD -18 0356 = SAO 148178 is a very red star. Its magnitude is indeed 2.89-3.02, but in K (infrared) band. Its V and B magnitudes are 7.05 and 8.66, respectingly. >so of course they can not be identical. The conclusion does not change, though. Sincerely, Hitoshi Yamaoka
