NOVA DELPHINI 1967
Mr. M. P. Candy, British Astronomical Association, cables that
a nova has been discovered in Delphinus by G. E. D. Alcock,
Peterborough, England, as follows:
1967 UT R.A. (1950.0) Decl. Mv
July 8.94097 20 40.0 +18 55 5.0
The discovery was confirmed by Candy, and also by R. E. Zissell,
Trunbull, Connecticut. Photoelectric photometry by Zissell with
the 20-inch reflector of Yale University Observatory on July 9.15
in rather hazy conditions give V = 5.73 +/- 0.05, B-V = +0.17 +/- 0.05,
assuming that the comparison star BD +19 4484 has V = 6.29,
B-V = +0.64.
COMET MITCHELL-JONES-GERBER (1967f)
The following parabolic elements have been determined by B. G.
Marsden, Smithsonian Observatory, from 23 approximate positions
July 1-8 obtained principally at the Smithsonian observing stations:
T = 1967 June 16.75 ET Peri. = 79.89
Node = 31.26 1950.0
q = 0.1817 AU Incl. = 55.51
