Dear colleagues, New variable star discovery by the MISAO Project (MisV1016). MisV1016 R.A. 20h44m01s.03 Decl. +38o34'23".1 (2000.0) Mag. 11.9C-14.2C Type M? = IRAS 20421+3823 R.A.=20 44 01.60 Decl.=+38 34 22.5 (20 x 7", p.a.=57) flux(12)=1.34 flux(25)=0.82 flux(60)=<7.50 flux(100)=24.47 97% variable = 2MASS 204400.993 +383423.93 (2000.0) 7.089 5.961 5.304 http://vsnet.aerith.net/misao/data/MisV/MisV1016.gif MisV1016 19991121.47200 141C Mis image="KenIchi Kadota" MisV1016 19991121.47242 142C Mis image="KenIchi Kadota" MisV1016 20000726.55855 120C Mis image="Nobuo Ohkura" MisV1016 20000726.56041 119C Mis image="Nobuo Ohkura" Seiichi Yoshida, MISAO Project; Nobuo Ohkura, Okayama, Japan; and KenIchi Kadota, Ageo, Saitama, Japan, discovered a new variable star MisV1016. 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". The identification with the 2MASS data is by Taichi Kato.
