Scientific paper

We present the result of the search for exoplanets and variable stars in the open cluster star fields, NGC 381, with the Lulin One-meter Telescope (LOT), Taiwan. The main scientific goal is to use time series CCD photometry measurements to detect exoplanets via transit effects. Observations of open clusters would give us important information on the formation of planets in different stellar environments. The secondary scientific goal is to discover and study variable stars with the similar data analysis process. Several program stellar clusters have been observed. Four variable candidates were discovered in the NGC 381 star field. One of them was identified as one of the suspected cluster member,CT 123, by Crinklaw & Talbert, (1988).
