[vsnet-alert 262] Re: potential ALEXIS transient

[tkato@kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp]

   Makoto Iida (VSOLJ; Nagano, Japan) has checked the field of the potential
Nov. 2 ALEXIS transient.  His observation was done around 3.5 UT (through
clouds) using CCD.  He tells he could safely reject a new object brighter
than mag 12.4.  By comparing with photographic atlases (Vehrenberg and Lick),
he has listed several cadidates of mag~14 (e.g. 14.5 mag star at 22h 40m 56s
+43o 09' 12" J2000.0), but the lack of further adequate materials makes
comparison difficult.  We would be very grateful if someone can help him or
take over the search.  Iida's e-mail address is QFG00456@niftyserve.or.jp
(also a member of vsnet-alert).
