Results from the BV(RI)c photometric observations of the young stellar object V2492 Cyg collected in the period from April 2018 to September 2020 are presented. These observations are a part of our monitoring of the star that began in 2010 and continuing to date. V2492 Cyg is located in the Pelican Nebula, and its variability was explained by both accretion and extinction events. The new photometric data show that the star continues to exhibit rapid irregular variability in all bands. In the period from March 2019 to May 2020, we registered a prolonged decrease event in the light curve of V2492 Cyg.

Results from BVRI photometric observations of the pre-main sequence star V1704 Cyg collected during the time period from August 2010 to December 2017 are presented. The star is located in the star-forming HII region IC 5070 and it exhibits photometri c variability in all-optical passbands. After analyzing the obtained data, V1704 Cyg is classified as a classical T Tauri star.
New photometric data from CCD UBVRI observations of the PMS star V350 Cep during the period from March 2014 to May 2017 are presented. In the period April-May 2016 we registered a deep fades event in the brightness of the star with amplitudes $Delta I$ = 1.75 mag, $Delta R$ = 1.69 mag, $Delta V$ = 1.77 mag and $Delta B$ = 2.16 mag. Simultaneously with the fades in the brightness, the change in the stars color indices has been observed. V350 Cep indicates the typical for stars of UXor type blueing effect during the deep minimum of brightness. During the second half of 2016 V350 Cep restores its brightness to a level close to the maximum. Since the star has been studied as a possible FUor object in previous studies, the possible cause of the deep decline is a decrease in the accretion rate. Another possible cause is obscuration from clumps of dust orbiting at the vicinity of the star.
Results from BVRI photometric observations of the young stellar object V2492 Cyg collected during the period from August 2010 to December 2017 are presented. The star is located in the field of the Pelican Nebula and it was discovered in 2010 due to its remarkable increase in the brightness by more than 5 mag in R-band. According to the first hypothesis of the variability V2492 Cyg is an FUor candidate. During subsequent observations it was reported that the star shows the characteristics inherent to EXor- and UXor-type variables. The optical data show that during the whole time of observations the star exhibits multiple large amplitude increases and drops in the brightness. In the beginning of 2017 we registered a significant increase in the optical brightness of V2492 Cyg, which seriously exceeds the maximal magnitudes registered after 2010.
As part of the Red MSX Source Survey of Massive Young Stellar Objects (MYSOs) we have conducted multi-wavelength follow up observations of the well-known object V645 Cygni. We present our data on this object, whose near-infrared spectrum is exception al and place these in context with previous observations. Our observations of V645 Cyg included near/mid infrared imaging observations, 13CO 2-1 line observations and high signal-to-noise velocity resolved near-infrared spectroscopy. The spectrum shows P-Cygni hydrogen Brackett emission, consistent with a high velocity stellar wind. A red-shifted emission component to a number of near-IR emission lines was also uncovered. This is associated with a similar component in the H alpha line. V645 Cyg is also found to have variable CO first overtone bandhead emission. The data clearly indicate that the outflow of V645 Cyg is variable. The unidentified feature in a previously published optical spectrum is identified with a receding outflow at 2000 km per second. The nature of this feature, which is found in hydrogen and helium atomic lines and CO molecular lines remains a puzzle.
Context. V2492 Cyg is a young eruptive star that went into outburst in 2010. The near-infrared color changes observed since the outburst peak suggest that the source belongs to a newly defined sub-class of young eruptive stars, where time-dependent a ccretion and variable line-of-sight extinction play a combined role in the flux changes. Aims. In order to learn about the origin of the light variations and to explore the circumstellar and interstellar environment of V2492 Cyg, we monitored the source at ten different wavelengths, between 0.55 mu m and 2.2 mu m from the ground and between 3.6 mu m and 160 mu m from space. Methods. We analyze the light curves and study the color-color diagrams via comparison with the standard reddening path. We examine the structure of the molecular cloud hosting V2492 Cyg by computing temperature and optical depth maps from the far-infrared data. Results. We find that the shapes of the light curves at different wavelengths are strictly self-similar and that the observed variability is related to a single physical process, most likely variable extinction. We suggest that the central source is episodically occulted by a dense dust cloud in the inner disk, and, based on the invariability of the far-infrared fluxes, we propose that it is a long-lived rather than a transient structure. In some respects, V2492 Cyg can be regarded as a young, embedded analog of UX Orionis-type stars. Conclusions. The example of V2492 Cyg demonstrates that the light variations of young eruptive stars are not exclusively related to changing accretion. The variability provided information on an azimuthally asymmetric structural element in the inner disk. Such an asymmetric density distribution in the terrestrial zone may also have consequences for the initial conditions of planet formation.
