Review of the Classification and Properties of 55 Variable Stars in Scutum

This study aims to assess the properties and classification of 55 variable stars in Scutum, little studied since their discovery and reported in the Information Bulletin on Variable Stars (IBVS) 985 and update. Using data from previous studies and several astronomical databases, we performed our analysis mainly utilizing a period analysis software and comparing the photometric characteristics of the variables in a Colour-Absolute Magnitude Diagram. For all stars, the variability is confirmed. We discovered new significant results for the period and/or type of 17 variables and highlighted incorrect cross-reference names on astronomical databases for 3 stars. This assessment also identifies 12 cases for which the results from the ASAS-SN Catalog of Variable Stars are systematically not consistent with the original light curves.

Review of the Classification and Properties of 40 Variable Stars in Sagittarius

This study aims to assess the properties and classification of 40 variable stars in Sagittarius, little studied since their discovery and reported in the Information Bulletin on Variable Stars (IBVS) 985 and update. Using data from previous studies and several astronomical databases, we performed our analysis mainly utilizing a period analysis software and comparing the photometric characteristics of the variables in a Colour-Absolute Magnitude Diagram. For all stars, the variability is confirmed. We discovered new significant results for the period and/or type of 15 variables and highlighted incorrect cross-reference names on astronomical databases for 5 stars. This assessment also identifies 9 cases for which results from the ASAS-SN Catalog of Variable Stars are systematically not consistent with the original light curves. A correct identification of NSV 10522 is provided.

Review of the classification and properties of 62 variable stars in Cygnus

This study aims to assess the properties and classification of 62 variable stars in Cygnus, little studied since their discovery and originally reported in the Information Bulletin on Variable Stars (IBVS) 1302. Using data from previous studies and several astronomical databases, we performed our analysis mainly utilizing a period analysis software and comparing the photometric characteristics of the variables in a Colour-Absolute Magnitude Diagram. For all stars, the variability is confirmed. We discovered new significant results for the period and/or type of 17 variables and highlighted incorrect cross-reference names on astronomical databases for 23 stars. For 3 stars, whose original type was unknown, we propose a new type. We calculated an epoch of a minimum or a maximum for 24 stars; for 3 of them, the epoch has been defined for the first time. This assessment also identifies some cases for which results from the ASAS-SN Catalog of Variable Stars are not consistent with results from Gaia DR2 and/or our analysis.

Proper identification of variable star V683 Cas

Investigation on the object reported by SIMBAD database as V683 Cas shows that this variable star corresponds to the eclipsing binary system GSC 03699-00091 (also identified as NSVS 1850718). The results of the photometric observations of the stars nearby to the position indicated for V683 Cas are reported.
