V0711 Tau Sequence

All

 

Roger Venne completed the request for a new V0711 Tau sequence to support AAVSO Alert 855.  Please note that within a 60 arcmin FOV, there are only two bright comps 43 and 72, which are adequate to use as a comp and check star.  

 

Clear skies

Thank you very much for your observing!

This is Miki Kurihara, a graduate student in Japan who asked Elizabeth to have this V711 Tau campaign.

Thank you very much for your assistance in observing V711 Tau. Especially now the weather on that week in Japan wasn't great, your observations will be very valuable data in helping us to better understand the object with XRISM data.

Best,

Miki Kurihara
