Thanks Maik. This is interesting and something I had not seen. I try to make sure when imaging that some short exposures are taken which might help detect...
For anyone has read the numerous papers of Z.Sekanina regarding the cascading disintergration of the Kreutz pygmy comets, it certainly comes as no surprise...
Hi Giovanni, ... Assumed that the orientation is the same as on the March 29 image and that fragment G is the one NNE of the center, I'd say that the extension...
Thank's Giovanni, At first excuse-me for my bad english!, I have looking, your image with B and G fragments of March 26.43. In a série (5x300s)taked on March...
... I have checked the field in the DSS and NEAT archive. There is *no* star at the position of your "extension". Neither on DSS2 red, blue and IR plates, nor...
Giovanni, I forgot to mention that they are originally with 1"/pixel but I scaled them at 200% for easier viewing. I have re-scaled your image as well. It is...
Hello comet observers from the whole world! Today is the 10th anniversary of my Home Page and Astronomy Page (absolutely seriously!) and I have put up a small...
Dears Reiner and François, thanks a lot for your help! So I think that we can rule out the possible effect of a background star. IMHO what is left is: i) some...
Congratulations Denis! I see you got bit by Comet Hale/Bopp too! Enjoyed browsing your site. Hope your weather is better in Moscow than here in the southern...
Hi all , update the light visual curve of comet 2006 A1 Pojmanski , total of 168 magnitudes visuals : http://webs.ono.com/jpab Regards , J.P.Navarro Pina . ...
I observed 73P last night : the FOV of my equipment didn't allow to catch all components , so I images 73P-B (with 73P-P in the same field) and following...
Dear Gioanni and all. The last night I have taken several images of the 73P G, the SNR was very poor but I think that something is happening in this fragment,...
Images of strange aspect (double ?) 73P-G available here : http://perso.wanadoo.fr/stephane.garro/73P_G.html Is 73P-G broken into pieces or what is this...
Dears Esteban, Stephane and François, thanks again for your additional contribution in the solution of this interesting phenomena: so, after all, this...
I thought I should make a brief comment on the Fourier analysis of the magnitude estimates that you have on your page. You can get a Fourier analysis to fit...
Component B of 73P/S-W was observed in photometric outburst at 03:34 U.T. on April 3 using a 41-cm Newtonian at 70x. The comet appears as a bright stellar...
Hi all, MPEC 2006-G10 reports further fragments: u, v, w, x, and y. All were reported by the Mt. Lemmon survey. Brightness range is between 19 and 21 mag. I do...
Regarding John Bortle's earlier observation of 73P-b, it is a splendid sight, showing a very tenuous tail in PA 236 deg. and most definitely brightened over...
Dear JBortle, ... Congratulations for your success of observing an unexpected outburst! And thank you for your report on this new outburst. At my last...
Hi Dave , you can study the works of : David Jewitt y Scott Sheppard : ' The nucleus of comet 48 P/Johnson' published in The Astronomical Journal , 127 ,...
I have an image of the component around Apr 2.00 with a canon 300d will it be usefull ? Manos Kardasis Hellenic Amateur Astronomers Association ... Dear...
... I can only confirm what you said. I observed component B yesterday April 3 at 19:55 UT, and I was supprised that comet was so brigt in 25cm Newtonian. Best...
Hi! Also confirm outburst as follows Best regards, Maciej Comet 73 (P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3-B) Recent comet estimates: Mar. 22.95, 12.9, 0'.7 (M. Reszelski,...
Another confirmation of the photometric outburst: 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann - B : 2006 Apr. 3.16 UT: m1=10.8, Dia.=3', DC=S8, 20 cm SCT (77x). [ Component B in...
