Hi,
I have been observing the SN when i can since 5th. I am recording magnitudes after basic calibration and reduction and using aperture photometry.
So these are “instrumental” magnitudes and i am acutely aware I did not use my photometry filters. So are blunt readings.
I’m recording when i can through the cloud simply to derive a consistently produced light curve for educational use.
That said, these are the measurements so far.
All integrated at approx 22.00UTC from South East UK
5th Sept – m13.7
8th Sept – m12.9
10th Sept – m12.7
So yes, getting brighter, but by my reckoning it might be levelling off. Which is what we might expect with a T1a.
The next few nights will be interesting.
I have been uploaded images of each observation in the britastro gallery.
