GRO J0422+32
Nick James, Chelmsford has submitted a photograph of the field of
this object taken on 1992 August 23.01UT with a 0.30-m reflector.
This shows that the object at the centre of the field in the
original e-chart (cf E662) is the 'new' star (=GRO J0422+32) and is
estimated at magnitude 12.6.
The possible candidate suggested by Gary Poyner (cf E661) was at
magnitude 14.3, close to its Guide Star Catalog value and is
presumably a normal field star.
A.J.Castro-Tirado, Denmark has examined the blue Palomar Sky Survey
chart which shows only a clustering of grains at the position of
the object. On the red survey this is a weak image of estimated
magnitude 16.5 +/- 0.7.
A revised e-chart, replacing that on E662, follows:
