[vsnet-alert 5277] V402 And position

[Hitoshi YAMAOKA <yamaoka@rc.kyushu-u.ac.jp>]

Dear all concerned,

  A presice astrometry of V402 And in the current outburst with Ouda
image gives:

R.A. = 0h11m07s.25, Decl. = +33o32'36".1 (2000.0)

with 25 GSC-ACT reference stars.  This coordinate agrees very well 
with the NL 75 value, thus that of Antipin (IBVS 4578).

>75002 V0402 And  000831.8 +301555  001107.3 +303236   15.5   (17.8
> B  UG      001 001

The coincident USNO star is;

USNO_A1.0 1200-00096036 00:11:07.28 +30:32:36.0  r=19.5 b=20.3
USNO_A2.0 1200-00093390 00:11:07.27 +30:32:36.3  r=19.4 b=19.3

# Please ignore the number immediately following the catalog names ;-)

From these magnitudes (and I also checked DSS 1 and 2 images, which
reveals that the USNO mags are of the quiesient phase), the outburst
amplitude of this star is around mag 4, which is rather small as a
typical SU UMa stars.

Sincerely Yours,
