For the probable new group with a nucleus consisting of C/1999 R1, C/2002 R5 and C/2003 R5 I have made a page showing the tracks of possible new group members...
Hi all, if it goes on like this then the Kracht group will have 50 members in maybe two weeks... ;) Maik -- If they give you ruled paper, write the other way....
Dear list, can anyone give me (off-list) a list of all new confirmed (secure) discoveries since Dereks last confirmations? I was off the whole week and have...
Hi all, just a short note that both above comets are not so clear Marsden group members. What we have seen and felt last year that their tracks were not...
Hi all, you will surely have noticed the last batch of three MPECs with new orbits. The last one, (J59), includes Rainers suspected brother (sister?) of comets...
Dear friends, sorry for bothering you with this OT. I got problems with my notebook and therefore some unreplied emails got lost. So if you sent me any emails ...
Hi all, I've made a minor modification to the report form. One or two of you (John in particular) were having problems with it deleting all your entries when...
Hi All, As Karl promised, a bunch of Meyer-group comets has just shown up in the latest MPEC: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/mpec/K04/K04J21.html Observer details:...
Hi all, I've just added the recent MPEC details to the site. For now, I've put Q1 and Q6 on the Marsden page, but I've separated them a little from the others...
The MPEC with the two prospective Marsden comets from August 2003 is out: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/mpec/K04/K04J19.html A look at the orbital elements Q...
Hi Michael, ... The amount of starlight deflection due to g.r. is only 1.76 arcseconds for the sun, while the pixel angular size for C2 is 11.4 arcseconds. So...
Hi all, congrats Karl to number 49. The next one may be the happy one. Please remember, I will assign the prize after the confirmation by the MPEC is out. This...
If you look at the full animation of the Bradfield flyby you will notice that just as Bradfield starts to leave the c3 frame, sol manages to flare a bit and...
Hi everyone. I'm one of the new folks on the block, well at least on this list, and while I've tried to find a comet in the SOHO pictures before over the...
In answer to the last post (which unfortunately I deleted so I don't have the name of the submitter), Karl's astrometry for Bradfield just showed up on MPEC a...
Hi all, I've seen a few numbers being thrown around as to estimates of the peak brightness of the comet, so I thought I'd share with you my preliminary...
Hi all, Tony, congrats for your Marsden comet! Well done, this one was not so easy due to the fact that the images are now have larger temporal spacing...
In looking at the C3 image on www.spaceweather.com's homepage (2004/04/19 11:54), the tail seems to be at an odd position. I would have expected it to be...
It looks like we aren't getting updated pictures on the C3. The latest image is from 04:54 17 APR. That's the same image from when I went to bed. I remember...
http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/mpec/K04/K04E28.html The three comets are from last October (curiously, a jump ahead from the previous confirmations, which were...
Hi list, with MPEC 2004-H01 Tony's Meyer group claim was finally confirmed. Taking the much more clearer chandidates without MPECs that are left as firm then...
Dear list members, just to give you a short note: comet C/2004 F4 (Bradfield) will be visible in LASCO C3 images April 16 to April 21 at around mag 1 - 3. ...
Hello list, Encouraged by Peter Birtwhistle, Terry Lovejoy measured and submitted an extra position of the April 13 night. This stabilizes the orbital solution...
