Новая комета Бредфилда 3 величины!!!

[KOR01]

Вильям Бредфилд открыл новую комету 3 звездной величины.
Вот первое сообщение о ней:
I have just put up an image of new Comet Bradfield at my website:

I have more images to follow from the past 2 days..

Mag 3 and it looks like it is brightening, but very small elongation.

Ну дает, старичок!!!!!!! Предварительного обозначения еще ей не дали?

[Timur]

Элементов орбиты еще нет?

[Timur]

Нашел! Видна будет, но очень сильно ослабнет, к сожалению!

Ну ничего себе! Снимаю шляпу, однозначно! Kor- Вашей оперативности нет равных!Приятное дело. Однако как насчет самим поискать и сырые координаты высветить в форум , чтоб в бинокуляр пошарить?

[Timur]

Здрасте, Бредфилд же в Австралии! Где шарить будем? [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]

COMET C/2004 F4 (BRADFIELD)
__________________________________________________ _______________

On Mar. 28, A. C. Beresford, Myrtle Bank, South Australia,
reported the visual discovery of a possible new comet close to the
horizon in twilight by William A. Bradfield, during his search for
sungrazing comets, from observations made with a 0.25-m reflector
on Mar. 23.43 and 24.42 UT; further attempts to observe it had
failed until the last few days. The delay in reporting was due to
difficulties in matching the sketch of observations with star
charts. Below are additional observations that have been reported
following requests to several observers.

2004 UT R.A. (2000) Decl. Mag. Observer
Mar. 23.43 1 50.0 - 1 26 8 Bradfield
24.42 1 51.0 - 1 25 "

W. A. Bradfield (Yankalilla, S.A.). Original positions given for
equinox 1950.0. Magnitude guessed.
R. H. McNaught and T. M. Smith (Siding Spring Observatory).
Strongly condensed blue coma with diameter about 0'.5; hint of a
tail pointing up from the horizon. Comet low in evening
twilight; 20x120 binoculars. Positional uncertainty stated as
+/- 5'. In-focus magnitude comparable to two nearby stars of mag
5.6. Also observed visually on Apr. 12.358, again almost stellar,
blue, and with a short (perhaps 2'-long?) tail pointing up to the
left at 10 degrees from vertical.
T. Lovejoy (Thornlands, Qld., Australia). Long. = 153.267 deg, Lat.
= -27.55 deg, h = 30 m. On Apr. 11, nineteen co-added CCD images
with Canon 300D camera + 100-mm f/4 camera lens; fairly obvious
tail 0.5 deg long.

The following very preliminary parabolic orbital elements are
from the above observations.

T = 2004 Apr. 17.12 TT Peri. = 332.49
Node = 222.66 2000.0
q = 0.1690 AU Incl. = 63.21

А мне то че, я ж не на кенгуру смотреть собираюсь, склонение стремительно растет и это радует. Теперь немного анализа и скажу насколько я стал счастливее, ведь и на северное полушарие втихоря достанется.Эх, еще бы в виде орб. элементов в старкалк запихнуть!!!
