Re: Symbiotic recurrent nova RS Oph in ourburst !!!

Hello all, Here is my new update for the monitoring of the outburst of RS Oph with two new spectra obtained with my Alpy 600. The first one, the 14th of August at 21 h 06 TU (resolution of 521, JJ = 2459441.3793) and an acquisition time of 15 min s (60 x 15 s) : _rsoph_20210814_879_Christophe Boussi...
