COMMISSION 27 OF THE I.A.U. INFORMATION BULLETIN ON VARIABLE STARS Number 1470 Konkoly Observatory Budapest 1978 September 8 NEW FLARE STARS IN THE NGC 7000-REGION In the period from July 1975, to November 1977 we continued the systematic search for flare stars in the NGC 7000-IC 5068-70 region. Our patrol observations were made with the 40"/52" Schmidt- telescope at Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory on Kodak 103aO- or ORWO ZU-2 plates with 2 mm Schott UG 1- or without filter. Table I gives the data for the plates, number of exposures and effective time of observations in U- and Pg-light. Table I Colour Number of Number of Teff plates exposures U 47 284 44h10m Pg 40 239 20h50m In the most cases the time of an exposition was 10 min in U- and 5 min in Pg-light. Total time of all multiple exposure observations is 65 hours. In Table II the data are presented for five new flare stars discovered.
