C/2011 J2 (LINEAR) - 2 sept. 2014

After the announcement by F. Manzini, V. Oldani, A. Dan, Stazione Astronomica di Sozzago, Italy, R. Crippa, Osservatorio di Tradate, Italy, and R. Behrend, Geneva Observatory, Switzerland report that  CCD-images taken on 27 august 2014, show a second nucleus of comet C/2011 J2 (LINEAR) . After this announcement i re-examine my CCD-images of this comet and could find a second fragment near the nucleus of this comet. After image enhancement en processing I could see more clear this fragment en did some measurements on the CCD-images, like you can see below in my ccd-images taken on 2 sept. 2014 of this comet.
