11. The periods 0.29779 d (type RRC), 0.59563 d and 0.63533 d (both type EW) are also possible. J-K = 0.670 (2MASS).Remarks:
During observations of the field of the soft gamma repeater SGR0501+4516 (Barthelmy et al. 2008), we discovered 11 new variable stars. Our observations were carried out at the Astrotel-Caucasus observatory using the 300-mm Ritchey-Chretien telescope, equipped with an unfiltered Apogee Alta U9000 CCD camera. In total, 824 images with 5-minute exposures were obtained on JD 2454702 - 2454829. For basic reductions for dark current, flat fields and bias, we used MaxIm DL software. For search and photometry of new variable stars, we applied VaST software by Sokolovsky and Lebedev (2005). The comparison star was USNO-B1.0 1351-0128409 (05:02:03.24, +45:06:16.1, (J2000), R1 = 14.13, R2 = 14.16). Unfiltered magnitudes were calibrated assuming Rcomp = 14.145. The coordinates of the variable stars in the table were drawn from the 2MASS catalogue (Cutri et al. 2003). Our observations were analyzed using Peranso software (www.peranso.com).
