Dear colleagues! I would like to send you observations of a new variable star (Brh V109), 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 V109 071817.8 +085729.8 (J2000) 11.1-11.6 (CCD) comments: Brh V109: GSC 763 58 The comparison star is GSC 763 784 (11.9 mag), which has been checked for constant brightness. The USNO A2.0 colours (r: 11.4 mag and b: 13.9 mag) and the following observations suggest a long period variable, type and period still unknown. object YYMMDD(UT) mag (CCD) code Brh V109 011209.0671 11.20 Brh.BAV Brh V109 011210.0678 11.16 Brh.BAV Brh V109 011224.0331 11.10 Brh.BAV Brh V109 020104.0435 11.13 Brh.BAV Brh V109 020106.0386 11.14 Brh.BAV Brh V109 020201.9469 11.38 Brh.BAV Brh V109 020204.9386 11.36 Brh.BAV Brh V109 020308.8563 11.59 Brh.BAV Regards, Klaus Bernhard Klaus Bernhard Kafkaweg 5 A-4030 LINZ AUSTRIA kl.bernhard@aon.at http://mitglied.tripod.de/KlausBernhard/index.html
