bei 20x zwei knapp zusammenstehende Sterne mit tiefer Einschnürung - bei 32x dann ein knapp getrenntes Pärchen - B-Komponente südwestlich gut eine halbe Größenklasse schwächer - beide Sterne mit weißem Brautkleid

107mm f/5.6, 30x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 30x zeigt sich B im Westen von A, Helligkeitsunterschied eine halbe Größenklasse, farblich unauffällig - bei 60x dann ein schöner Farbkontrast, A strahlt in einem schönen, sanften Gelb, B im Kontrast Roséweiß

12.5" f/4.5, 72x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 72x ein schick anzusehendes, knapp getrenntes Pärchen - A im Osten ist hellgelb - B ist vielleicht eine halbe Größenklasse schwächer und auch gelblich, aber nicht so stark wie A

B 16x70, Bortle 6
STF1964 (AC): 2021-06-13: Beautiful double star with components of almost equal brightness and subtle color difference: white-bluish & slightly orange.

102mm f/11, 62x
STF1964 (AC): Rather wide pair, equal without visible difference in color.

120mm f/5, 23x, Bortle 6, NELM 5m.0+, SQM-L 19.4
STF1964 (AC): Nice double star, well split with equally bright components.

René Merting
B 18x70, SQM-L 21.0
STF1964 (AC): zu erkennen sind zwei gleich helle, sehr dicht stehende Sterne - Trennung ein wenig mehr als knapp

100mm f/6.4, 20x, SQM-L 21.0
STF1964 (AC): bei 20x ein gut getrenntes Pärchen gleich heller Sterne, auffallend im Sternumfeld

107mm f/5.6, 30x, SQM-L 20.6
STF1964 (AC): bei 30x ein kleines, feines Paar zweier gleich heller Sterne - gleiche Farbe - schöner Anblick zusammen mit STF 1965

2021-06-14: A slight elongation can be guessed at best.

102mm f/11, 28x
At 28x very tight and barely split, unequal. At 86x very nice view. No difference in color: both components appeared white.

120mm f/5, 48x, Bortle 6, NELM 5m.0+, SQM-L 19.4
Very nice double star, well split with noticeable difference in brightness.

100mm f/6.4, 32x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 32x ein knapp getrenntes deutlich helleres Pärchen als der 27' südwestlich stehende Doppelstern STF1964 - Komponente B ist gut eine Größenklasse schwächer als A - beide Komponenten schmiegen sich meist noch aneinander, aber in guten Momenten sind beide getrennt sichtbar - zurück auf 20x ist ein länglicher Stern erkennbar

107mm f/5.6, 43x, SQM-L 20.6
bei 30x sehe ich zwei ungleiche Sterne mit Einschnürung kurz vor der Trennung - bei 43x zeigt sich ein knapp getrenntes Sternpaar - A schimmert Gelblichweiß, B ist eine Größenklasse schwächer und richtig schön weiß

152mm f/8, 300x
2021-07-23: Gamma CrB was only a few degrees above the house roof and the refractor was insufficiently cooled down. In no way visible as a double star. I used magnifications from 200x to 400x.

Nice double star, easy to split with noticeable difference in brightness.

B 18x70, SQM-L 21.0
ein gut getrenntes Sternpaar - Komponente A im Südosten ist doppelt so hell wie B - ganz leichter Farbkontrast

100mm f/6.4, 20x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 20x sind beide Sterne gut getrennt erkennbar - schöner Farbkontrast zwischen beiden ungleich hellen Sternen

107mm f/5.6, 30x, SQM-L 20.6
bei 30x sind zwei schwache Sternchen gut getrennt erkennbar - leichter Farbkontrast, A wirkt leicht Cremegelb, B ist eher Weißgrau

2021-06-13: Well visible as a double star, although it appears only elongated. The components seem to be similar bright.

René Merting
100mm f/6.4, 32x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 32x stehen die Sterne sehr dicht, aber schon getrennt sichtbar - Komponente B nordöstlich strahlt nur etwas schwächer, schätzungsweise eine halbe Größenklasse

René Merting
107mm f/5.6, 86x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 86x zeigt sich B äußerst schwach sehr knapp getrennt westlich von A - A treibt B im Okular förmlich vor sich her - Helligkeitsunterschied riesig

12.5" f/4.5, 144x, SQM-L 21.0
bei 144x ist B hauchzart westlich neben der intensiv gelblich strahlenden A-Komponente erkennbar - Helligkeitsunterschied … riesig bzw. nicht abschätzbar - es hat ein wenig gedauert, bis ich B entdeckt habe, dann aber war es relativ leicht

107mm f/5.6, 60x, SQM-L 20.6
24.05.2023: bei 60x ist auf den ersten Blick nichts Auffälliges zu erkennen, im Vergleich mit anderen Sternenwird dann aber doch deutlich, dass der Stern eine andere Tönung hat - je länger ich mir den Stern anschaue, desto besser kann ich die Färbung erkennen, die eine sanften, hellen Roséorange nahe kommt
