Remarks: |
The variability of TYC 2760 00635 1 was reported by Damerdji et al. (2007). The
star's type was not determined. The possible period, P=3.7648 d, was accompanied
with a comment:
"Bad sampling, period probably wrong". Later Bernhard and Lloyd (2008) investigated
the star using the ROTSE-I/NSVS data (Wozniak et al. 2004). The variable was identified
with an X-ray
source 1RXS J232138.5+344259 and classified as a likely RS CVn
star without eclipses, its period being 2.12082 days.
A big scattering on the phased light curve suggests that eclipses,
not revealed by the authors, can exist in the NSVS data.
I reinvestigated the star using the same ROTSE-I/NSVS data. The observations were analyzed using the period-search software developed by Dr. V.P. Goranskij for Windows environment. In fact, TYC 2760 00635 1 is an eclipsing variable, EA subtype, with a period of 4.243 days. A distortion wave characteristic of RS CVn stars overlaps the eclipsing light curve. MinII = 11.95, D = 0.17P. |
