Star RA Dec Variability Spectral type Period
[day] [M yr-1]

IK Tau 03 53 28.87 +11 24 21.7 M M9 470 5 × 10-6
R Dor 04 36 45.59 62 04 37.8 SRb M8e 332/172* 1.6 × 10-7
W Hya 13 49 02.00 28 22 03.5 M M7.5-9e 390 1 × 10-7
R Cas 23 58 24.87 +51 23 19.7 M M6.5-9e 430 8 × 10-7

Notes. RA and Dec are given in J2000 co-ordinates. Variability and period information was obtained from the International Variable Star Index (VSX) database. The variability types are M = Mira variable, SRb = semi-regular variable type B. The mass-loss rates, , are taken from Maercker et al. (2016).

(*)

Both primary and secondary mode pulsation periods are listed for R Dor (Bedding et al. 1998).
