Simultaneous photometry and spectroscopy CPP the newly discovered gamma Doradus variable HR 8330=HD 207223

We present BV photometry and simultaneous high-resolution, high signal-to-n oise ratio spectroscopy of the newly-discovered gamma Doradus variable HR 8 330 taken during the 1997 and 1998 observing seasons. We calculate power sp ectra for the B- and V-band data sets and for the time series defined throu ghout the observing season at each point across the FeII lambda 4508.289 an d the Ti II lambda 4501.278 line profiles to search for periodic variabilit y. Period analysis reveals a single, 2.6-d period in both the photometric a nd the spectroscopic data, with a 237 degrees phase lag between them. Based on the location of HR 8330 in the HR diagram and the characteristics of it s photometric and spectroscopic variations, we conclude that HR 8330 is a b ona fide gamma Doradus-type pulsating variable.
