cds-question@unistra.frvariable-starsphotometryThe Taiwanese-American Occultation Survey project is designed for the detection of stellar occultations by small-size Kuiper Belt Objects, and it has monitored selected fields along the ecliptic plane by using four telescopes with a 3deg^2^ field of view on the sky since 2005. We have analyzed data accumulated during 2005-2012 to detect variable stars. Sixteen fields with observations of more than 100 epochs were examined. We recovered 85 variables among a total of 158 known variable stars in these 16 fields. Most of the unrecovered variables are located in the fields observed less frequently. We also detected 58 variable stars which are not listed in the International Variable Star Index of the American Association of Variable Star Observers. These variable stars are classified as 3 RR Lyrae, 4 Cepheid, 1 {delta} Scuti, 5 Mira, 15 semi-regular, and 27 eclipsing binaries based on the periodicity and the profile of the light curves.2014AJ....147...70Ihttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/147/70CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toB/vsx : AAVSO International Variable Star Index VSX (Watson+, 2006-2014)B/gcvs : General Catalogue of Variable Stars (Samus+ 2007-2013)V/139 : The SDSS Photometric Catalog, Release 9 (Adelman-McCarthy+, 2012)I/322 : UCAC4 Catalogue (Zacharias+, 2012)I/327 : Carlsberg Meridian Catalog 15 (CMC15) (CMC, 2011)I/305 : The Guide Star Catalog, Version 2.3.2 (GSC2.3) (STScI, 2006)II/264 : ASAS Variable Stars in Southern hemisphere (Pojmanski+, 2002-2005)I/284 : The USNO-B1.0 Catalog (Monet+ 2003)I/259 : The Tycho-2 Catalogue (Hog+ 2000)J/AJ/139/2026 : TAOS variable stars (Mondal+, 2010)J/AcA/52/129 : DIA OGLE2 candidate variable stars catalog (Wozniak+, 2002)J/AJ/119/1901 : ROTSE all-sky surveys for variable stars (Akerlof+, 2000)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/147/70https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/147/70http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/147/70https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/147/70https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/147/70http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/147/70GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/147/70/table5 (List of known variable stars in 16 TAOS fields)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/147/70/table5?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/147/70/table5?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/147/70/table5?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true322.15413889-16.150453060.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/AJ/147/70/table6 (List of previously uncataloged variable stars in 16 TAOS fields)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/147/70/table6?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/147/70/table6?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/147/70/table6?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true323.1635-15.322150.0055555555555555565/83 1129 1197 7344 6/228 229 231 242 357 4767 18075 24231 24242 24243 24248 25671 25682 27089 27094 27474 27480 27481 29038 29039 29050 29124 29125 29127 29136 29291 29333 29380 29382 29385 30053 30054 30055 30061 31158 31159 31164 31165 31167 44390 44391 44396 44397 44814 44815 44836 44837 44848 48567 48573 48610 48611https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/147/70?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/AJ/147/70/table7TAOS photometry catalogMJDModified Julian Datedtime.epochdoublerecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
