Objects Session Notes

M100 - Spiral Galaxy & Supernova 2006x

- 1 hour session, cut short by a rain shower & developing cloud.

- main aim was to obtain magnitude estimates for Delta Cepheid & RT Aur and to image SN 2006x and other recently discovered supernova. Objectives were only partially met due to adverse weather conditions.

M100 (Coma Berenices) with SN 2006x 2006x was discovered 2006/02/04 by Shoji Suzuki; M. Migliardi (CROSS) (Rochester Supernova site \| Discovery Image \| Discovery Image 2 \| Reference Image) Image below (2006-02-20.9708) was taken 16 days after discovery. Estimated magnitude of 2006x is +13.7 (C filter). This is possibly at around peak brightness, magnitude at discovery was +17 (C)
