A finding chart for V2491 Cyg

SkyView image of V2491 Cyg (see important notes).

Position
  • Equatorial: 19h43m01.97s, +32d19m13.5s (Gaia)
  • Galactic: l= 67.23, b=+4.35
Finding Chart:
?
Brigntness:
Optical: G=18.0 (Gaia); X-rays: 2.0x10-12 ergs cm-2s-1 (4XMM-DR11, from 2017-11-28 observation)
IP Credential:
** (Possible): The X-ray (including hard X-ray, courtesy Swift/BAT) detection of the pre-nova makes it similar to V2487 Oph. The post-nova X-ray data are suggestive of IP nature, but the best X-ray period is 38.4 min and the best optical period is 36.24 min.
