Возвращение кометы 73P/SCHWASSMANN-WACHMANN!!!
ctac:
После прочтения ответов на этот пост все стало понятно ;) : http://groups.yahoo.com/group/comets-ml/message/8887
Оказывается у них не было уверенного отождествления с кометой, а в другую дату вообще не было изображения кометы :P
И как в последствии оказалось, комета была в 20' от расчетной точки ;) А они долбили рядом в надежде на точность старых эфемерид.
Оно и понятно, это вам не Десятую планету открывать (18.7m звездообразное тело), а все V=19.5m при размазаном изображении ;D

Появилось первое наблюдение компонента B !

J. A. Farrell (Jemez Springs) reports his detection of a fragment of comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann on Jan. 06, to 09, 2006. It was with 19m about 3m fainter than the primary fragment. Most likely it is identical with fragment B of the 1995-96 apparition according to a linkage by Z. Sekanina (JPL). (IAUC 8659, subscription required)
P.S. Стас, можешь выложить тут (или послать в приват) текст IAUC 8659? Очень надо!

Дима, у меня сейчас нет доступа к свежим IAUC :( Не уверен, что появиться в течении месяца.
А основную всю инфу можно подчерпнуть из Кометного листа yhoo-рассылки и MPEC. Откуда ты скорее всего и взял данное сообщение.

What I have found strange, and I ask if someone has recent observations, it isthemagnitude of the fragment "B" of the comet 73P: in only 5 days is decreasedof 1,2 magnitudes, passing from 17,2 to 16,0!Best regardsRolando Ligustri

73P-B can not survive this return?
Dear colleagues,The component B (or F by Sekanina's paper) is unexpectedly brighteningrapidly in early February. Now it is already bright as 16 mag. Thedifference form the main component C reduced down to only 2.0 mag. http://www.aerith.net/comet/catalog/0073P/2006.html It reminds me that 141P/Machholz 2 in 1999, when the component Dbrightened rapidly prior to the main component A, but unexpectedlydiminished before the perihelion passage.Zdenek Sekanina revealed in his paper: ICQ 27, 225-240 http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/icq/sek_icq_V27_225.pdf that four components were born from 73P. Two of them, A and originalB, were visible only in 1995 appearance and already vanished. Thecomponent E diminised before the perihelion passage in 2001, andprobably already vanished. The component B (or F) began to be observedin its previous appearance in 2001, and now only this survives.Is the current unexpected rapid brightening of the component B (or F)a sign that it can not survive this return and will vanish like theother components?Best regards,--Seiichi Yoshida

Subject: 73P nucleus fragmentation tree
Dear colleagues,I read Sekanina's paper, Nakano Note and recent IAUCs and MPECs on thelink among fragments of 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3.I found that some scenarios are proposed on the identification amongfragments observed in 1995 return (A, B), fragments observed in 2001return (B, E) and fragments observed in 2006 return (B).Here I show the nucleus fragmentation trees of the three scenarios: http://www.aerith.net/comet/catalog/0073P/index.html

Although one might anticipate the comet to display a huge coma at such close proximity to Earth, this was definitely not what was reported at the 1930 equally close approach. In fact, near perigee the reported coma diameter seems to have been only 3'-5'(!). Thus, it would appear that only the region immediately surrounding the nucleus was apparent by visual means.
