spectroscopic observations on 14 june

again a clear night. i could start around 23h local time in evening twilight with capturing a spectrum of alpha Draconis (spectroscopic double starsystem) in h-alpha region in high resolution (R~15000) with LHiRess and C11 setup, exposuretime was 6 x 600 sec (STAROS-project – This database concerns the star alpha Draconis (Thuban, HD123299), a relatively bright spectroscopic binary of type A0III (V=3.68), with an orbital period of 51 days.). After this star, i observed Be-star 10 Cas and exposuretime was 2 x 1200 sec. data for the BeSS database.

Comet and spectroscopic observations on 2-3 april

a very clear night but with moonphase of 0.91 we had disturbing moonlight. SQM @ zenit was 18.9. I could observe some comets: 29P, 364P, C/2019 U5, C/2020 R7, C/2022 L2 and object C8AY5Y2 mentioned on the PCCP. Spectroscopic observations in high resolution (R = ca. 15000) were made from emission B-stars: 53 Boötis, kappa Draconis and CQ Ursa Major with my C11 + LHiRess III spectrograph with 2400 l/mm grating.
