From: DWest61506@aol.com Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2003 21:37:48 EST Subject: [vsnet-chat 6144] Nova V2540 Oph getting "bluer"? On 08/19/2002 V-Rc=0.85 and currently V-Rc=0.67. V2540 Oph is getting "bluer", I'm not sure what that means in terms of nova development. Maybe it has entered the nebular phase? Possibly there is less dust surrounding the nova and hence less reddening? I'm open to suggestions.
