[vsnet-campaign 1359] HD 23873
>>>Apparently HD 23873 has faded by ~0.16 magnitude. SIMBAD lists HD 23873
at V=6.606 with spectral class B9.5V. The UBV catalog shows a range of 6.57
to 6.62 for this star. More observations will be required to confirm the
fading of HD 23873.
Dear Doug and colleagues,
Last night I observed HD 23873 and it doesn't seem to be fainter....
My visual observation is:
HD023873 20030105.029 66 OSE
The raw result was 6.63. There are good comparison stars. See my chart at:
http://ar.geocities.com/varsao/Carta_BU_Tau.htm
Maybe the proximity of HD 23872 (V= 7.5) has its influence in some of the
results??
On the other hand, from GCPD and Hipparcos photometry, the magnitude of 18
Tau (the "new"
comparison star) is V= 5.66.
Regards,
Sebastian.
