The following objects had a jump in Mean Motion and * MIGHT * accelerate.
These objects need to be observed As Soon As Possible!
89- 59 B = 20150 94- 45 B = 23190
The following objects had a jump in Mean Motion and * HAVE * accelerated.
They are flashing nicely again.

==========================================================================
89- 28 B = 19922
This object had a jump in mean motion some weeks ago, but hasn't been
observed since. Yesterday I finally could observe it and YES it has
accelerated!

Who can confirm if it is still going down or already going up again?
-----------------
91- 81 B has been observed by Bram Dorreman with a long period, so I
removed it from this list.

Next weekend (May 4 and 5) I will prepare the first update to our PPAS6.
If you haven't send us your observations of last weeks yet, please send
them to obs@physics.ox.ac.uk before 4 May 1996.
Happy observing,
