Abstract:
    An analysis of more than 2000 CCD observations of the field RR Lyrae
    star NSV 09295 shows that the star is a double-mode RR Lyrae (RRd)
    variable with P_0_=0.46334d and P_1_=0.34423d. This brings the total
    of known field RRd stars in the Milky Way galaxy to four. These four
    variables are compared with the RRd stars in galactic globular
    clusters and with the field RRd stars in the LMC, and in the Draco and
    Sculptor dwarf galaxies. It appears that all known RRd stars have a
    metal abundance of less than [Fe/H]=-1.6.
