La Superba is a strikingly red giant star in the constellation Canes Venatici. It is faintly visible to the naked eye, and the red colour is very obvious in binoculars. It is a carbon star and semiregular variable.
20 Canum Venaticorum is a single variable star in the northern constellation of Canes Venatici, located 238 light years from the Sun. This object has the variable star designation AO Canum Venaticorum; 20 Canum Venaticorum is the Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, white-hued star with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of +4.72. The star is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +9 km/s. Eggen (1971) listed this star as a member of the Hyades Stream.
5 Canum Venaticorum is a probable binary star system in the northern constellation of Canes Venatici, located about 375 light years from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.77. The system is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −14 km/s.
4 Canum Venaticorum is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Canes Venatici, located around 425 light years away. It has the variable star designation AI Canum Venaticorum; 4 Canum Venaticorum is its Flamsteed designation. Its brightness varies from magnitude +5.89 to +6.15 with a period of 2.8 hours, which places it around the lower limit of visibility to the naked eye. This was found to be a binary by Schmid et al. in 2014, based on periodic, non-sinusoidal changes in its radial velocity. It is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 124.4 days and an eccentricity of 0.31.
R Virginis is a Mira variable in the constellation Virgo. Located approximately 530 parsecs (1,700 ly) distant, it varies between magnitudes 6.1 and 12.1 over a period of approximately 146 days. Its variable nature was discovered by Karl Ludwig Harding in 1809.
T Andromedae is a variable star of the Mira type in the constellation Andromeda. Like all the stars of this kind, T And is a cool asymptotic giant branch star of spectral type M4e-M7.5e. Its brightness varies periodically, completing a cycle in 281 days. The peak luminosity, however, is different every variability cycle, but can reach a peak magnitude mv=7.70.
HD 183144 is a suspected variable star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. It is a hot giant star about 1,130 light years away.
HD 155035 is a star in the constellation Ara, the Altar. It is located at a distance of approximately 1,450 light-years from Earth and has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.92, making it is faintly visible to the naked eye. This is a red giant star with a stellar classification of M1.5 III.
W Andromedae is a variable star in the constellation of Andromeda. It is classified as a Mira variable and S-type star, and varies from an apparent visual magnitude of 14.6 at minimum brightness to a magnitude of 6.7 at maximum brightness, with a period of approximately 397.3 days.
R Equulei is a class M Mira variable star in the constellation Equuleus. Its brightness varies between a minimum magnitude of 15.0 to a maximum of 8.7 with an average period of 261 days.
HD 42540, also known as HR 2196, is a giant star in the constellation Pictor. A class K2-3III orange giant, its apparent magnitude is 5.04 and it is approximately 389 light years away based on parallax.
10 Canum Venaticorum is an ordinary star in the northern constellation of Canes Venatici. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.95, which, according to the Bortle scale, can be faintly seen with the naked eye from suburban locations. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 0.057 arcseconds, this system is 57.26 light-years from Sun. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +80 km/s.
S Boötis is a Mira variable in the constellation Boötes. It ranges between magnitudes 7.8 and 13.8 over a period of approximately 270 days. It is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, however when it is near maximum brightness it can be seen with binoculars.
R Ursae Minoris is a star in the constellation Ursa Minor. A red giant of spectral type M7IIIe, it is a semiregular variable ranging from magnitude 8.5 to 11.5 over a period of 325 days.
R Cancri is a Mira variable in the constellation Cancer. Located approximately 250 parsecs (830 ly) distant, it varies between magnitudes 6.07 and 12.3 over a period of approximately 357 days. At its brightest, it is very faintly visible to the naked eye.
R Trianguli is a short-period oxygen-rich Mira variable in Triangulum with a period of 266.9 days, discovered by T. H. E. C. Espin in 1890. It is losing about 1.1×10−7 M☉/yr, close to average for a short-period Mira variable. While most short-period Mira variables reside in the Galactic halo, R Trianguli is a member of the thick disk, and its proper motion is fairly high for its distance. Its angular diameter in the K band was measured in 2002 to be, on average, 5.22±0.30 mas, with a shape suggesting that there is an optically thin disk structure surrounding the star.
