The new variable star HassfortherV01

The new variable star was detected by blinking stardial images and first announced in vsnet-newvar 383 (25.04.2000). Stardial consists of a redfiltered Kodak KAF-0400-Chip, so the magnitudes are a combination of R and I.

HassfortherV01, Data
Pos. (2000):   17h25m10.7s -3°08´04.0"
Identification:   Hassforther01 = IRAS 17225-0305
Identification:   Hassforther01 = ASAS 172511-0308.1

Measuring 311 Stardial-images from 1996 to 2003 showed that HassfortherV01 is a Mira-star.

The star reaches 8.5 in I, according to the TASS-Photometry. ASAS3-V-magnitudes reaches about 12.7, the star is therefore very red. The amplitude is higher then 2.3 mag in I.
