Date: Sun, 11 Apr 93 13:28 GMT From: Guy M Hurst <GMH@ASTROPHYSICS.STARLINK.RUTHERFORD.AC.UK> Subject: RE: VS observations Dear Taichi, I have compiled all TA observations of SN 1993J since discovery and merged with your own bringing us to about 304 estimates. However in my analysis I work on the actual estimate which includes the comparison stars and the intervals between them when the estimate was made. For example: A(1)v(2)B (fractional estimate) B-2 (Pogson estimate) Do your Japanese visual observers record this detail when they make their estimate? If so is there any chance these estimates could be e-mailed for results from japan to date? I realise this may be too demanding a request and if so please ignore. I shall quite understand but there is no doubt that examination of the actual estimate can often enable large scatter which seems to exist for SN 1993J to be reduced, Kind regards, Guy
