[vsnet-newvar 2160] (fwd) re IGR J17544-2619 field



  From John Greaves:

===

Here's a bit of a coincidence re me nova list.

Because I like to view catalogue stuff plotted graphically I noticed 
instantaneously on going to the IGR etc field that it was within 6 arcmins of N 
SGR 2001 No. 1.

So, essentially that means that I could see that one quadrant of the Integral 
position's error box overlaps one quadrant of the available Arne Henden 
photometry files taken at that time for that nova, some of which should be 
quite deep in magnitude.

Unfortunately I also noticed that the ROSAT bright source is just outside the 
Henden area.

But you should be able to compare some of your own current photometry with 
Arne's from that epoch to look for variation.  Obviously, the two datasets may 
not be to the same zeropoints, but global offsets should exist such that you 
would be able to detect any objects with true variation I suppose, similar to 
what you do with ucac stuff.

The Henden photometry should be available via his public ftp site.

The extension is that others may have old photometry of this area, even 
yourself ;^)

Cheers

John
