FIN 74 |
Finsen and van den Bos both noted 4 possible components on multiple |
Fin1928b |
|
nights. Their note: "The existence of the components A, B, and C was |
B__1928c |
|
at this stage regarded as certain, while D was strongly suspected. The |
|
|
interpretation of the earlier measures of duplicity presents some |
|
|
difficulties. It is possible that the nova was simply double at that |
|
|
time and that the triple or quadruple chacter developed later. An |
|
|
alternate explanation is that the observers were able to see more |
|
|
detail as they grew more accustomed to the densely nebulous region." |
|
|
A steady increase in the AB and AC distances were noted between 1928 |
B__1931a |
|
and 1931. |
Fin1931 |
|
Markedly nebulous in 1932; B and C well outside it but very faint. In |
|
|
1933 nebulous character of A almost unnoticeable; B very faint but |
|
|
still measurable; C almost a glimpse objects and measures hardly |
|
|
better than a guess. |
B__1933d |
|
Nova Pictoris, RR Pic. Observations of the ejecta similar to those |
|
|
made by Kuiper for Nova Herculis (1934). |

Not a double star. |
