[vsnet-alert 4026] KZ Gem astrometry

[Patrick Schmeer <extpasc@rz.uni-sb.de>]

Hello Gordon, Brian, and Arne,

you should have checked vsnet-alert 3991, too. Here is an excerpt:

There are three USNO-A2.0 stars very close to the catalogued position of
KZ Gem:
A) 06:53:02.496  +16:40:05.96  14.3  15.3
B) 06:53:02.468  +16:40:00.05  14.9  16.5
C) 06:53:02.744  +16:39:50.61  17.6  17.9
 
The star marked in DWS97 is just north of star C and southeast of B. 
Star B (or a very close companion of it) is the outbursting object. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From vsnet-alert 4022 (Gordon Garradd):

I find the following position for the star Brian notes using 38 GSC-ACT stars, RMS resid. 0".32
Also position for star immediately to its north
     
KZ Gem?       C2000 01 15.61503 06 53 02.47 +16 39 58.8          15.1 R      422
              C2000 01 15.61503 06 53 02.51 +16 40 06.2          14.3 R      422
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gordon's first position is for KZ Gem (probably contaminated by my star B), his
second one is for star A. 

Cheers, 
Patrick
