Dear colleagues, New variable star discovery by the MISAO Project (MisV0865). MisV0865 R.A. 17h59m48s.91 Decl. -29o55'34".9 (2000.0) Mag. 13.4C-<14.6C Type ? = IRAS 17566-2955 R.A.=17 59 49.29 Decl.=-29 55 42.8 (60 x 7", p.a.=93) flux(12)=1.15 flux(25)=<1.98 flux(60)=<9.51 flux(100)=<92.76 http://vsnet.aerith.net/misao/data/MisV/MisV0865.gif MisV0865 19990220.84521 <118C Mis MisV0865 19990220.84609 <118C Mis MisV0865 19990408.75863 <146C Mis MisV0865 19990408.75917 <145C Mis MisV0865 19990430.73977 <143C Mis MisV0865 19990430.74022 <143C Mis MisV0865 19990520.68250 <143C Mis MisV0865 19990520.68331 <143C Mis MisV0865 19990923.43545 <144C Mis MisV0865 19990923.43589 <144C Mis MisV0865 20000224.83931 134C Mis MisV0865 20000224.83986 134C Mis It was detected by the PIXY system as one of the candidates of new variable stars from images taken by KenIchi Kadota, Ageo City, Saitama, Japan, then confirmed by Seiichi Yoshida. The magnitude are measured automatically by the PIXY system. Image observers' names are noted after "Mis", except for ones taken by KenIchi Kadota. V995 Sgr is 1.8 arcmin from MisV0865, that was detected as a variable star between 13.9 - 14.7 mag. MisV0865 is thus a new variable star.
