Dear colleagues! I would like to send you observations of a new variable star (Brh V86), 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 Brh V86 202515.7 +072534 (J2000) 12.6-13.5 (CCD) SR comments: Brh V86: GSC 509 533 The comparison star is GSC 503 341 (12.0 mag), which has been checked for constant brightness. The red colour (USNO A2.0 r: 14.9, b: 18.4) and the apparently slow change of brightness suggest a SR-variable. object YYMMDD(UT) mag (CCD) code Brh V86 010627.0510 12.61 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010704.0336 12.84 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010705.0392 12.96 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010706.0426 12.85 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010710.0461 12.87 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010715.0538 13.33 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010716.0267 13.28 Brh.BAV Brh V86 010718.0406 13.45 Brh.BAV Regards, Klaus Bernhard Klaus Bernhard Kafkaweg 5 A-4030 LINZ AUSTRIA kl.bernhard@aon.at http://mitglied.tripod.de/KlausBernhard/index.html
