Abstract

•We presented the analysis of photometric observation of GSC 1566-2802 in the visible filter.•We improved the ephemeris for times of maximum.•The Fourier analysis has been performed and obtained oscillation modes.•The physical parameters were calculated according to the main period.

CCD photometry observation of a newly discovered, high amplitude Delta Scuti star GSC 1566-2802, with a visible filter, is presented. The observations were carried out at Alborz Observatory located in Mahdasht, Karaj, Iran.The main goal of this project was to update our knowledge of the periodic variations of the target star. This paper covers three analyses, first calculating a new ephemeris and plotting a new light curve based on 19 times of maxima; then a Fourier analysis of the observed data points which results in determining probable oscillation modes, as well as computing its physical parameters which guide us to its harmonics and pulsation modes.
