NSV 11321 1993/041 11.2-12.0 16 Apr 1993 1843+40 Object faint on 23 March 1993. Identified as NSV 11321 = Lyr 26 S 9331 = BD+40 3480 found by Hoffmeister in 1964 and suspected to be an eclipsing binary. Not in IRAS PSC. Beltraminelli and Dalmazio (1999) confirm the eclipsing binary as EW type with range 10.96-11.47 in V with photoelectric ephemeris Min (HJD)=2450700.3444+0.577639 E. This ephemeris also appears in the analysis by Beltraminelli et al. (1999). V2303 Oph 1993/075 11.1-(12.4 22 Aug 1993 TA-EC 779 TAV 1836+11 Object bright in July 1993 and each July-August since 1989. Oph 73 Identified as IRAS 18361+1108. Further details announced on TA-EC 780, 781, 782 and 783. Chengalur et al. (1993) report failure to detect OH maser emission at 1612 MHz. Designated V2303 Oph on IBVS 4140 (72nd Name-List). 0510+53 1993/086 11.8-(12.5? 30 Sep 1993 Aur 24 Bright object near R Aur in September 1993. Identified as IRAS 05102+5340. Does not appear on AAVSO (b), (c) or (d) charts. NSV 14295 1993/095 9.2-10.8 31 Oct 1993 2241+59 Object bright in mid-October 1993. Cep 17 Identified as NSV 14295 found by Otto Morgenroth in 1933 and IRAS 22413+5929 = IRC+60364 = Prager 2364 = CSV 5604 = RAFGL 2941. Was not detected as radiosource in the 24P survey of the area. NSV 1470 1993/098 11.8-12.5 4 Nov 1993 0405+62 Object bright in mid-October 1993. Not in IRAS PSC. Cam 13 Identified as NSV 1470 = CSV 6077 = BV 311 found by Strohmeier and Knigge in 1960. The suspect is close to the compact open star cluster NGC 1502 and appears on the photograph of this cluster in Burnham's Celestial Handbook on p.329. The star also appears at the very edge of the identification chart for the cluster in Hoag et al. (1961). REFERENCES Beltraminelli, N., Dalmazio, D. 1999, GEOS Circ.
