Dear colleagues! I would like to send you observations of a new variable star (BeV56), which I have discovered in a systematic CCD-based search for new variables. In each observing run typically 400 images are taken of several survey fields. The frames are processed automatically. Instruments: CCD-camera:Starlight Xpress SX (unfiltered) Telescope: Celestron-8 (20 cm Schmidt-Cassegrain) New variable star: new BeV56 205144.6 +035514 (J2000) 12.4 13.1 (CCD) SR comments: BeV56: GSC 520 1979 Comparison star was for all measurements GSC 520 2290 (12.6 mag), which was checked to be constant. The apparently slow change in brightness and the red colour (USNO A2.0 r:12.9 mag, b:15.7 mag) suggest a SR-variable. object YYMMDD(UT) mag (CCD) code BeV56 000707.0371 12.99 BRH.BAV BeV56 000723.0405 13.14 BRH.BAV BeV56 000801.0294 12.95 BRH.BAV BeV56 000810.0391 12.71 BRH.BAV BeV56 000812.0037 12.64 BRH.BAV BeV56 000815.0058 12.45 BRH.BAV BeV56 000820.9988 12.40 BRH.BAV Regards, Klaus Bernhard Klaus Bernhard Kafkaweg 5 A-4030 LINZ AUSTRIA e-mail: kl.bernhard@aon.at
