The July fragments 73Pbv and 73Pbu have almost disappeared, but two new fragments have become visible.
We named them RE001 and JRD01. RE001 is 70" from 73P and was first sighted by Gerald Rhemann on August 13th with the 12" astrograph at Farm Tivoli.

The brighter object JRD01 was also observed on Aug 13 both at Tivoli and by Michael Jäger and Lukas Demetz with the 20" IDK at Farm Hakos.
It is 13' from 73P and 19m0-19m5 bright. It shows a condensed coma and a short  tail. On August 14 the observations could be confirmed.
