K. Itagaki, Yamagata, Japan, reports (via H. Yamaoka, Kyushu University) his discovery of a new variable star during his CCD survey using a 0.21-m reflector on Aug. 23.745 UT. A confirming image taken with a 0.60-m reflector on Aug. 23.778 (when its unfiltered magnitude was about 13.8) yields the position as R.A. = 20:51:26.19, Decl. = +44:05:23.6 (equinox 2000.0). No object was detected at this position on a survey reference image taken on 2008 Aug. 7.668 (limiting mag about 17.5), but it has gradually brightened in 2010. Other available unfiltered CCD magnitudes for the variable: 2009 Dec. 19.450, [16.5 (observed at Tochigi station); 2010 Feb. 20.798, 15.6 (at Tochigi); Apr. 3,768, 15.1; May 8.720, 14.9; June 2.619, 14.7. The outbursting FU Ori-type star HBC 722 (e.g., see http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=2808) is also detected on Itagaki's recent survey image. Yamaoka notes that a very faint (mag about 20) object can be seen on the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS) F plate taken on 1990 Sept. 11, but cannot on other DSS images including an N plate from 1994 Sept. 12. Yamaoka also notes that the new object is a bright source in the mid-infrared region (IRAS and AKARI) but was not detected in the near-infrared region (such as 2MASS), and it is embedded in a massive star- forming region. Also, nearby V1704 Cyg is at mag about 16.5 on Aug. 23 on Itagaki's image, which has been posted at http://www.k-itagaki.jp/images/p.jpg with the new variable marked.
