Hi all,
During my search for Planetary Nebulae using the GALEX UV images, I noticed a relatively bright UV star with a B-V index of 0.87 (UCAC4, APASS). APASS lists the Visual magnitude to be about V= 12.8 mag.
Coordinates (J2000.0): 09 56 11.090 -08 27 07.76
Designations: GSC 0547500429; NSVS 13025153; NSVS 15712384; UCAC4 408-051909; CSS_J095611.1-082707
Looking at CRTS and NSVS data, the object appears to be a variable, of about 0.2 magnitudes in the CV and ROTSE-I band. The CRTS magnitudes seem to be affected by saturation(?), and I'm having a hard time determining a period vased on this data. Using the NSVS data, I found a possible period of 0.091 days, but this might be wrong. My attempt of a folded lightcurve is given in the attached document.
The descriptionof this object (and potentially the lightcurve) indicate the possibility of this object being a delta Scuti (DSCT) type variable, maybe even a HADS (the amplitude would indicate this). I'm still new to variable star observing, in particular low-amplitude variables.
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,
Trygve
