(fwd) ROTSE1 SURVEY test fields... (Greaves) Date: Sun, 04 Jun 2000 10:34:26 +0000 From: JG <jgts@jgws.totalserve.co.uk> LD345 = GSC 3530 2757 lies amidst a ROTSE1 test field. Apparently, throughout the time of that survey nothing untoward occured in this star, as they detected no variation for it. Then again, I'm not sure whether RCBs are all that easy to detect with standard variability detection algorithms, which look for periodicity, or if not for that, at least for short term variation [gross generalisation]. Then again, again, I'd have thought any dips of reasonable duration would have been obvious. Ostensibly, quasi-R band epoch photometry for this object should lay upon the ROTSE1 hard disks somewhere. So, unless they're sulking from the ticking off Brian [rightly] gave re their unthorough approach to crossidentifying "their" ROTSE variables with extant lists, maybe they'll cough it up if somebody asks nicely?
