Source Notes:

This source was moved to the Default Catalogue on 191118.
This detection was announced at the eXtreme 19 Conference by Fallah Ramazani et al. (2019).

Source Position:
The source position reported in TeVCat is taken from NED:
R.A. (J2000): 02h 14m 17.9344s
Dec. (J2000): +51d 44' 51.947''

Spectral Properties:
From MAGIC Collaboration (2019):
The data were fit with a simple power-law spectrum of the form:
- dN/dE = F0 x (E/E0)^-A
- F0: 0.10 +/- 0.03 x10e-12 cm-2 s-1
- A: 2.0 +/- 0.3
- E0: 1574 GeV
The integral flux above 200 GeV is 1.6 +/- 0.5 x10e-12 cm-2 s-1
From Fallah Ramazani et al. (2019):
- spectral index at VHE (observed): 1.90 +/- 0.29
- flux (>300 GeV): 5.1 +/- 2.0 x10e-12 ph cm-2 s-1

Distance:
From Marcha et al. (1996):
- "Optical spectroscopy of the 200-mJy sample was obtained at the
Multiple Mirror Telescope on Mt Hopkins, on the nights of 1992 May 8-9
and November 2-3."
- a redshift of z=0.049 +/- 0.002 was measured
