Here I with differential photometry looking for stars that just have small amounts of variation relative there neighbor stars.
Just by random pick up sets of 8 stars and compare them against each other.
After a while I found these two stars that have a different pattern compare to the other 6 stars that I use as reference stars. I have not find out which stars these are yet. Update: With help from Thomas K and Hans Bengtsson I now know that the T1 star is ASAS J192437+4334.4 (KIC 7820467). Hans Bengtsson also found that the star T5 is an earlier not known variable KIC 7888888, but needs follow up analyzes. See below. |

At bottom the 6 ref stars, they are offset along the Y-axis.
Above, the yellow and blue line are the two stars that have a different pattern compare to the reference stars. Update: With a lot of help from Hans Bengtsson the T5 star (yellow line) is now reported as a new variable: https://www.aavso.org/ vsx/ index.php? view=detail.top &oid=608444 |

Comment : | Now when I gained more experience I have done the analyze of target T1 and T5 once again. More carefully selected reference stars and more of them. At the same time I got 6 more interesting stars to analyze. |

At top the T1 and T5 data, looks almost the same as earlier,
good, because then I know it's not that very critical which reference star I use.
Among the 20 stars I picked up I have 6 new candidates.
I need to know at what brightness I shall limit my objects, they oversaturate at about 200'000 electrons / second.
Too weak stars and it will be noise and also more difficult to get some data to compare with. By looking at the error bars I see that object T7 has big error bars. Then looking at the signal of T7 I see that it has 40'000 electrons integrated in one second (the unit is electrons / second). I shall not use that weak stars as reference or maybe not as interesting object either. At least not now when I'm in the learning process. |
