Hi Bish and others,
Harry did another measure of eta Carinae on 2
February. Here are the preliminary results for this and the first
measure:
JDH -2400000
V B-V
U-B
52302.8814
5.144 0.722 -0.316
52307.9694
5.159 0.697 -0.327
Differences
0.015 0.025 0.011
We did this mainly to confirm that there was
nothing too much wrong with the first measure. It seems from these that Harry is
still getting +/- 2% photometry on this object. We'll do a calibration run later
in the season to confirm that there hasn't been too much drift in the
transformation coefficients since year 2000.
Regards to all,
Stan
