abstract

We present results of an analysis of the ASAS-3 data for short-period variables from the recently published catalogue of over 38 000 stars. Using the data available in the literature we verify the results of the automatic classification related to $\beta$ Cephei pulsators. In particular, we find that 14 stars in the catalogue can be classified unambiguously as new $\beta$ Cephei stars. By means of periodogram analysis we derive the frequencies and amplitudes of the excited modes. The main modes in the new $\beta$ Cephei stars have large semi-amplitudes, between 35 and 80 mmag. Up to four modes were found in some stars. Two (maybe three) new $\beta$ Cephei stars are members of southern young open clusters: ASAS 164409-4719.1 belongs to NGC 6200, ASAS 164630-4701.2 is a member of Hogg 22, and ASAS 164939-4431.7 could be a member of NGC 6216. We also analyze the photometry of four known $\beta$ Cephei stars in the ASAS-3 catalogue, namely IL Vel, NSV 24078, V1449 Aql and SY Equ. Finally, we discuss the distribution of $\beta$ Cephei stars in the Galaxy.
