Date: Sun, 21 Feb 93 11:51 GMT From: GP@STARLINK.SPACE-RESEARCH.BIRMINGHAM.AC.UK Subject: EG Cnc Dear Taichi, In addition to my e-mail about EG Cnc, we have very little information on this star. We do know that it was found in outburst on Nov 12 1977 at mag 11.9 by Huruhata, and that it faded to 14.1 by Dec 7. The chart we use was taken from IBVS 2401, and no mention of a mag 16 companion is given. It is a 1 degree chart of very poor quality, so I am not surprised that errors will occur! The magnitude range we have is 11.9 - 17:V. The chart is also without a sequence. Thank you for pointing out that a companion star is present. This makes all the difference to past observations! If you could supply any further information, this would be of great help and value. Many thanks, Gary
