Datenbankinformationen über Brh V151 (sobald verfügbar)
I would like to send you observations of a
new variable star (Brh V151), which I have discovered in
a systematic CCD-based search for new variables. In each
observing run typically 600 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 V151 00 24 39.1 +24 55 22.5 (J2000) 12.7-13.4 (Rotse)
comments: Brh V151: GSC 1731 551
The star is mentioned in the paper:
Astron. J., 120, 1516-1531 (2000) - September 2000
The INT search for metal-poor stars: spectroscopic observations and
classification via artificial neural networks: (Fe/H: -1.82).
The following observations and the Rotse data suggest an WUMa variable with a
period of 0.42283
days, but a light curve similar to a Beta Lyrae variable.
The Rotse data are available at: http://skydot.lanl.gov/nsvs/nsvs.php
