full moon and a clear night, unfortunately with low transparancy. I could observe comet C/2017 K2 and an object mentioned on the PCCP as possible comet and found. Also spectra could be obtained from Be-stars: V357 Lac, lam Cyg, HD 203374.
new comet C/2022 L1 (CATALINA)
On 9 june, i , together with the comet observer-team of Telescope Live, could observe an object, mentioned on the PCCP of the minorplanetcenter, with a remote Telescope-Live 0.61-m f/6.5 telescope located in Rio Hurtado Valley, Chile. This object was later on 13 june assigned as comet C/2022 L1 (CATALINA)
new comet C/2022 K1 (Leonard)
On 2 june, we could observe an object , mentioned on the PCCP by use of a remote telescope-live 0.7-m f/8 Ritchey-Chrétien located in Oria, Spain and this object was later on 7 june assigned as comet C/2022 K1 (Leonard)
comet and spectroscopic observations on june 1/2
The weather forecasts were good for observing on this ‘grey’ night. A few comets were observed with the 0.4-m f/3.8 corrected newton: 116P, C/2017 K2, C/2019 U5, C/2020 H6, C/2020 K1, C/2020 O2, C/2020 U5, C/2021 O3 (not found), C/2022 E3. With the C11 cassegrain telescope and the LHiRes-III spectrograph I was able to record 1 spectra of Be-star V974 Her.
spectroscopic observation on 28 may 2022
oDespite some passing clouds, I was still able to take some spectra of Be stars: 13 Oph and iot Lyr
spectroscopic observation on 20 may 2022
spectroscopic observations on 17 may
Again a clear night, so i started with spectroscopic observations in high-resolution ( R=15000) of Be-stars: 28 Cygnus and omicron Hercules.
new comet observed C/2022 J1 (Maury-Attard) on 6 may
While this object was still mentioned on the PCCP of the minor planet center, we could observe and detect this object an could confirm the cometary nature of this object. Later on 6 may was this object assigned as comet C/2022 J1 (Maury-Attard)http://www.astronomie.be/erik.bryssinck/c2022j1_20220506.html
new manuscript: Comets beyond 4 au: How pristine are Oort nuclei?
New manuscript published 3 May 2022 in the Astronomical Journey, by M. Fulle where some comet observations of my are used: Comets beyond 4 au: How pristine are Oort nuclei?
