INFORMATION BULLETIN ON VARIABLE STARS Number 1865 Konkoly Observatory Budapest 1980 November 12 HU ISSN 0374-0676 NEW VARIABLE STARS IN THE FIELD OF 9 URSAE MAJORIS A survey for the search of new variable stars at high galactic latitude have been made on the plates taken with the Schmidt telescope (67/90/210 cm) of Asiago in the field around 9i UMa. Six new variables have been discovered on ten pairs of plates examined with the blink. The position (1950) and the characteristics of these stars are listed in Table I. Table I var.
