ParticipantHi all,
Just finished a quick session here and get 16.6 V over 3 images. Data in the dB.
Cheers

Yes, 14.01 in V at this moment. (average of 12 images).
Data uploaded.
Cheers

ParticipantHi Michael,
I have my setup at Pixel Skies Astro in Spain. Excellent all round! Highly recommended.

ParticipantHi all,
14.65 V last night.

ParticipantAnother re-brightening in progress – I have it at 13.65 with Clear filter just now.
Yes, I agree, I’m getting an average of 13.66 in V over 11 measurements.
Cheers

ParticipantHi all,
Poor, hazy conditions from here last night, but I managed 8 images and they are swinging around an average of 15.07 in V.

ParticipantUnless there is something seriously off with my routine, I captured it at around magnitude 13 yesterday. Here is a series designed for mag 16 (Clear filter, 5 min exposures).
That’s amazing Magnus!
Poor weather here last night, but I reckon there’s a decent chance I’ll be able to get it again tonight.
Cheers

ParticipantHi all,
I managed 26 x 180s images last night – see attached. I concur with Gary and Magnus that it is down at about mag. 16.2 in V.

ParticipantClouds rolled in here near Selsey about two hours before the start.
I managed these video clips through cloud gaps and haze:

ParticipantHi all,
My recent measurements in V show a very linear looking fade. I just added last night’s measurements.

ParticipantHi all,
I managed a few measurements last night. The slow fade continues.

ParticipantHi all,
A real drop in brightness, much fainter tonight. Here are 50 more measurements from here in the UK.

ParticipantHi all,
I managed 39, 120s exposures last night from here in the South of the UK. The sky was very milky due to the Canadian wildfires, so the quality was not as I had hoped. Graph attached and data in BAA and AAVSO databases.
Cheers

ParticipantAnother update, nearly 10,000 brightness measurements in the last two outbursts.
There are some fascinating details in the variability within the daily bursts of measurements. I need to analyse them further to see what they contain.

ParticipantHi all,
I managed 18 decent measurements in V last night with SNR around 150 and the average was 12.87 – see attached.

ParticipantHere are my measurements from a few minutes ago in Spain.
Average of 15 V images = 12.51

ParticipantHi all,
Eight consecutive nights from my C11 in Spain shown here – the graceful decline continues…

ParticipantHi all,
Just processed 7 images from Spain overnight. Average of 12.38 in V. See attached. Data has been uploaded.

ParticipantHi all,
Here’s an update on SS Cygni. I’ve been intensely monitoring the star for the last two outbursts and have made nearly 7,000 photometric measurements in the R and V bands in that time. It’s noticeable how variable the magnitude is especially during the dim portion of the cycle pre-outburst. Also, two very different widths of outburst.
See attached light curve from the photometry database.
Cheers
