Dear colleagues, New variable star discovery by the MISAO Project (MisV0968). MisV0968 R.A. 19h27m44s.27 Decl. +24o23'27".6 (2000.0) Mag. 10.4C-12.3C Type SR? = USNO-A2.0_1125.12714508 19 27 44.265 +24 23 27.60 14.8R 18.4B = IRAS 19256+2417 R.A.=19 27 44.24 Decl.=+24 23 25.1 (17 x 3", p.a.=74) flux(12)=1.62 flux(25)=0.68 flux(60)=<0.42 flux(100)=<3.78 3% variable = 2MASS 192744.203 +242326.59 (2000.0) 6.251 0.000 0.000 http://vsnet.aerith.net/misao/data/MisV/MisV0968.gif MisV0968 19990605.70576 104C Mis image="KenIchi Kadota" MisV0968 19990605.70620 104C Mis image="KenIchi Kadota" MisV0968 20000607.57133 123C Mis image="Nobuo Ohkura" Seiichi Yoshida, MISAO Project; Nobuo Ohkura, Okayama, Japan; and KenIchi Kadota, Ageo, Saitama, Japan, discovered a new variable star MisV0968. It was picked up by Yoshida from the candidates of new variable stars detected by the PIXY system from images taken by Ohkura comparing with images taken by Kadota. Kadota and Yoshida judged it as a real variable star. The magnitude are measured automatically by the PIXY system. Image observers' names are noted after "Mis". John Greaves pointed out that this object is the secondary star of the binary WDS 19277+2423 = Pou 3835, the pair of 13.6 mag and 13.8 mag stars. The cataloged position of WDS 19277+2423 is 48 arcsec from MisV0968. But the separation and position angle of MisV0968 and a nearby star USNO-A2.0 1125.12713797, R.A. 19h27m43s.603, Decl. +24o23'31".07, 13.8 mag(R), 15.2 mag(B), is 9.8 arcsec in 111 degree, which correspond to those of WDS 19277+2423, 9.2 arcsec in 115 degree very well (Pourteau, M. A., Paris Catalog, Zone +24 degrees, 1933). The identification with the 2MASS data is by Taichi Kato.
