Poor sky conditions Bug HHO

HHO is suffering an unprecedented period of unfavorable weather conditions.  It's almost as if we have a monsoon season - without the rain!

Current/Planned Targets

 

 

* Currently being observed

   

Completed Targets

 

(912) Maritima

Data indicates a possible extreme rotational period.  Nightly data was linked to within 0.05mag using internal photometric calibration via MPO Canopus CSS functionality.

(11836) Eileen

CALL target.  Located in a crowded star field.  A lot of star subtractions required to measure the images.

(933) Susi

CALL Target

(99913) 1997 CZ5

CBET 2648.  This target was found to be a binary target with discover credit awarded to HHO

(1550) Tito

Collaboration with PO Vladimir Benishek

(16592) 1992 TM1

Could not adequately complete this target.  Data indicates a long period in the order of 150hrs.

(319) Leona

Data indicates a possible extreme rotational period.  Nightly data was linked to within 0.05mag using internal photometric calibration via MPO Canopus CSS functionality.

(1598) Paloque

Meets BINAST parameters and previously unobserved

(11666) Bracker

Serendipitous target found in 1138 Jutta FOV.  Not followed up

(14693) Selwyn

Serendipitous target found in 3533 Toyota FOV.  Not followed up

(3782) Celle

Known Binary.  Follow up observations for system modelling

(798) Ruth

Found in same field as 770.  To be observed only if it remains in 770's FOV.

(1806) Derice

Apri/Mayl BINAST Target

(3533) Toyota

April BINAST Target

(4853) Marielukac

Found in the same FOV as 1278.  It has a 3- value on the lightcurve list so I will continue to observe it.

(1166) Sakuntala

CALL Target P=6.3 U=2 (Period Confirmed)

(1278) Kenya

CALL target for Vladimir Benishek (long period)

(562) Salome

CALL Target, U=2 P=6.3hr (Period Confirmed)

(9368) Esashi

May BINAST Target.  Data too noisy to determine any deviations in the curve

(1183) Jutta

CALL target, unknown period (Appears to be a long period though this has not been resolved to my satisfaction)

MB11234

MicroFun Target (Experiment to see if the current 1.48"/px resolution of HHO is still of use to the programme.)

(532) Herculina

CALL Suspect Binary from Occultation (Very bright target - Experiment)

(770) Bali

Requested Target (Dr David Vokrouhly).  To be observed continuously through to June 2011

(1455) Mitchella

BINAST Target - Long Period - No longer of interest to BINAST

(1696) Nurmela

BINAST Target.  Target dropped as starfield too dense to image with current mechanical issues.

(1406) Komppa

CALL Target

(2131) Mayall

BINAST Target - Returning Binary (Withdrew from observations due to density of star field)

(368) Haidea

CALL Target, U=3 P=9.823hr Found in the same FOV as 770 Bali, No further observations taken

(1325) Inanda

CALL Target P=20.5 U=2.  A difficult target who's data does not appear to match the published lightcurve period.

(4935) Maslachkova

BINAST Target - Done for this second apparition

(500) Selinur

CALL Target - 8 h U=2.  Period confirmed

(1718) Namibia

BINAST Target

(5571) Lesliegreen

CALL Target - Found at mag 17 in 500 Selinurs fov.  No further observations undertaken.

V1312 Sco

New Nova in Sco (Data for John Menke)

(6192) 1990 KB1

BINAST Target

(1077) Campanula

BINAST Target

(1830) Pogson

BINAST Target - Returning Binary, 4th apparition

(1820) Lohmann

BINAST Target

(5905) Johnson

BINAST Target

(180) Garumna

BINAST Target

(23225) 2000 WD25

BINAST Target

(4826) Wilhelm

BINAST Target

(5293) Bentengahama
