In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi CBAers, By now , most of you have heard about this. It certainly is important!... but I hope you won't forget about last year's celebrity, V1674 Her. Magnitude 17.0 and delivering string signals at 501 s and 3.5 hours, and we're anxious for another few weeks of data to finish up our paper! joe -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [vsnet-alert 26800] Re: [cvnet-outburst] U Sco outburst Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2022 20:55:44 +0200 From: Josch Hambsch To: cvnet-outburst at groups.io, vsnet-alert at ooruri.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp CC: baavss-alert at groups.io I have added it to my observing program for tonight. Lets hope for a positive confirmation.

The assemblage of periods and rates of period change are certainly the most sensational I've encountered in my career... and it's a short, easy-to-understand paper. I'll send it next week to you, and also astro-ph. With big shots like U Sco lurking about, it's sometimes hard for a little old mere nova to get attention. So, with the Moon finally out of the way, I'm hoping you can give this little star some close attention now. The spin period changes at a rate ~100x faster than anything we have seen before, so we really need to hammer away to keep track of it LONG runs are especially valuable. Check to make sure we've got your contact info right. joe -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <6b4fed7a-3688-b0d5-ab35-c7c6a6dbaf04@astro.columbia.edu> Hi CBAers, Quick note on this paper, just about ready for initial submission. I notice that in recent submitted data, there are a few inconsistencies between JD (in the data) and calendar date (in the header of the message). Maybe all of this comes from the changeover in calendar date that often occurs in the middle of the European night. Because of this, I've always gone with the JD numbers in the data. But I'd like to be sure for this one - because the period is short, the rate of period change is high, and there are no blindingly obvious features (deep eclipse?) in the light curve to answer the question. You don't need to answer if my assumption is correct. Maybe something like "May 26/27" in the header is useful, if it applies. joe ____________________________________________________________ Center for Backyard Astrophysics (CBA) mailing lists https://cbastro.org/communications/mailing-lists/
