Abstract
We present preliminary results on variable stars of aSTARE's three month observational run centered at the Cygnus constellation.A total amount of aprox. 14000 stars with 9<R<12.5 magnitude,in STARE's 6.1×6.1^2 FOV, have been analyzed to obtainlightcurves for each of these stars.The data spans for ∼90 nights.In this single field, we detect more that 40 stars withpulsation modes between 5 and 40 c/d, the vast mayoritypreviously unknown to be variables.
