COMMISSION 27 OF THE I. A. U. INFORMATION BULLETIN ON VARIABLE STARS Number 2161 Konkoly Observatory Budapest 1982 June 15 HU ISSN 0374-0676 OBSERVATIONS OF SOME VARIABLE STARS During the period June 1965 - August 1970 56 blue plates (Zenith Astronomical and Scientia 67 A 50) have been taken with the 135 mm astrograph on the field centered at RA = 20h13m; D = +47d (1950). The results of observations of some variable stars in this field are given in this paper. XX Cyg - Four maxima of this RRs star were observed on: JD m O - C 24... 38939.421 11.2 +0d007 961.396 11.1 - .001 40124.346 11.3 + .007 152.247 11.4 - .008 The phases have been obtained with the elements of the General Catalogue. The star varied between 11.3 and 12.5 magn. BW Cyg - Semiregular variable. During the period of observation this star varied between 13.0 and 14.2 magn. The observations are satisfied by the following elements: max = 2438941+ 173d. The epochs of maximum are: JD m O - C 24... 38941 13.0 0^d 39296 13.0 + 9 40124 13.7 -28 40504 13.4 + 6 BX Cyg - Probably an irregular variable star (12.8-14.1 magn. in our plates). The epochs of maximum are: JD m JD m 2438940 13.1 2439680 13.0 39023 12.9 40415 13.0 39350 13.0 CN Cyg - Mira star. Only two maxima have been observed on: JD 2439026 (8.4) and 2440955 (8.6) in accord with the elements of the General Catalogue. V 786 Cyg - Irregular variable star with a marked red colour. This star had nearly constant brightness most of the time and showed some rapid variations of 0.5m-0.6m with a cycle length of two to five days. UU Cep - No maxima of this semiregular variable have been observed. The fitting of the light curves suggests the following new improved elements: max = 2440768+ 372.7d. HI Cep - Eclipsing variable with unknown elements. The observations near the minima give: JD m 24... 38935.415 13.7 40150.249 13.0 40504.273 13.5 The star varies between 12.0 and 13.7 mpg. GR 306 - This new suspected variable star has been discovered on 63 films (Tri X + GG 14) taken with two Schmidt telescopes 25/30/75 cm in Pegasus. [FIGURE 1] Its position is RA = 22h07m26s; D = +32d20.5' (1950.0). Very likely this star belongs to the RR Lyrae type. The photovisual range is 13.6 - 14.1. No elements have been derived. The finding chart is shown in Figure 1. G. ROMANO, M. PERISSINOTTO Istituto di Astronomia Universita di Padova [From IBVS 2265] Erratum: In IBVS No. 2161 (1982 June 15), the new variable star is not GR 306 but GR 310.
