. Attached is the discovery image of SN1999by. It is a 30 second exposure with the 30cm SCT and Starlight Xpress camera. The discovery was confirmed by Tom Boles and Mark Armstrong and looks as if it could be very bright. Although the weather has been very poor, I have managed over 1500 observations in April.

The motion of energetic ions and electrons through space is strongly constrained by the local magnetic field. The basic mode is rotation around magnetic field lines, while at the same time sliding along those lines, giving the particles a spiral trajectory. On typical field lines, attached to the Earth at both ends, such motion would soon lead the particles into the atmosphere, where they would collide and lose their energy. ... In this way the Earth holds on to its radiation belts. ...
