ANOVA power spectrum of the discovered variable object (upper panel). The variability was detected at a frequency of 56.274 cycles per day, corresponding to the period of 25.59 minutes, but the true modulation is at 112.549 c/d or the period of 12.79 minutes. Lower panels: phased I-band light curve with the two periods. The presented data come from 2017.
