Abstract

This paper continues the publication of the list of the new variables discovered at Astronomical Observatory, DSFTA, University of Siena, while observing asteroids for determining their rotational periods. Further observations of these new variables are strongly encouraged in order to better characterize these stars, especially those showing non-ordinary light curves.
