MisV1140 is an Algol-type eclipsing variable     December 7, 2003 Nakajima, K.; Yoshida, S.; Ohkura, N. Kazuhiro Nakajima revealed that MisV1140 is an Algol-type eclipsing variable with unfiltered CCD variations of 13.50 mag at maximum, 14.8 mag at primary minimum, 13.68 mag at secondary minimum, and period of 4.4479 days. MisV1140, R.A. 22h39m58s.95, Decl. +47o20'16".4 (J2000.0), is a new variable star discovered in the course of the MISAO Project from Nobuo Ohkura's unfiltered CCD images taken on Aug. 4, Sept. 17 and Oct. 10 in 2000. Nakajima observed it on 13 nights between Aug. 23 and Oct. 29 in 2003 with 0.25-m f/5 Schmidt-Cassegrain and CV-04 CCD, and caught four minima. Minimum HJD Error of HJD Secondary 2452884.2037 0.0007 Secondary 2452901.9957 0.0004 Primary 2452913.1151 0.0007 Secondary 2452942.0265 0.0009 The period is derived as 4.4479 days from these minima. Here is the light curve of MisV1140 from total 1645 observations. Comparison star is TYC2-3624.0786.1, R.A. 22h40m08.8s, Decl. +47o19'49" (2000.0), 11.40 mag(V). The phases on the figure were calculated by the ephemeris: Primary minimum HJD = 2452913.1151 + 4d.4479 x E
