[vsnet-obs 9658] southern variables 1998 Feb 3,4,5

["Fraser Farrell" <fraserf@dove.net.au>]

G'day all,

Despite many clouds from disintegrating cyclone(s) I managed to get a
few obs done for Feb 3, 4 and 5.  All times UT.

First the variable in front of NGC 5128 (Cen A):
Feb 3  16:31  10.6
Feb 4  16:00  10.4
Feb 5  15:04  10.6
Sequence from Thompson & Bryant's Supernova Search Charts. The chart
also shows a 14th mag star at the position of NGC5128-V17, which is just
to the north of the variable I'm watching.  GCVS typo error?  Galaxy
position error?  TWO variables??


Other variables:
AG Car     Feb 4  15:45    6.8
Eta Car    Feb 4  15:45    5.4
V854 Cen   Feb 4  16:09    7.6
BI Cru     Feb 3  16:24   12.0?
BI Cru     Feb 4  15:55   12.0?
BP Cru     Feb 3  16:26   10.8
BP Cru     Feb 4  15:57   10.7
S Dor      Feb 4  15:42    9.5
VW Hyi     Feb 4  15:40  <12.0
U Mon      Feb 4  16:10    5.9
EsB 365    Feb 3  16:23   10.2
EsB 365    Feb 4  15:53   10.7
EsB 365    Feb 5  14:52   10.7

This EsB 365 fade is by far the longest one I have seen!


cheers,
Fraser Farrell
