Star Name: GSC 2050-00745
Coordinates (J2000): 16 18 34.35, +27 28 13.3
Variability type: RRAB, Blazhko effect;   Limits, System: 0.58 - 1.92 (delta V);    
Period: 0.508648 d;   Epoch(max): JD 2453558.37

Remarks:
Our observations of GSC 2050-00745, an RRAB type variable star with strong Blazhko effect (Antipin et al., 2005), have been continued. Our CCD photometry was carried out at the Crimean Laboratory, Sternberg Astronomical Institute, using a Pictor 416XTE camera at the 50-cm reflector in 2006 and a SBIG ST2000XM CCD camera at the 60-cm reflector in 2007. 127 V-band brightness measurements were obtained on two nights in 2006: July 25 - 26, JD2453942-43; and 218 measurements, on three nights in 2007: July 11 - 16, JD2454293-98. The images were dark subtracted, flat-fielded and analyzed with the aperture photometry package developed by V.P. Goranskij. GSC 2050-00597 was used for comparison. The phased light curve is given in the Figure. The V-band amplitude of pulsations changes from 0.57m in 2006 to 1.34m in 2005. Unfortunately, the Blazhko period still remains unknown.
