Confirmations for Nov 2021 & STEREO archives
Happy New Year all!
These have taken a long time to do because it was confusing trying to go through the groups.io reports (although Robert had been keeping a list for me, which was definitely a huge help), and also because it's always more complicated when the comets are also in the HI-1 field of view. But I think these should be correct. I will work on December reports next week and hopefully they should be a lot faster to do.
This first set is a number of archive STEREO reports that I have been sitting on for a long time (over a year), plus some new comets that were found more recently. Again, these are always tricky because trying to match SOHO comets with STEREO/HI-1 observations is not at all linear, but I'm confident that the comets listed here are all new. I had several other reports from Trygve and Robert that I checked, but nothing I could confirm. One or two of them I might "upgrade" to x-comet, but that's as far as I can take them

I almost made 4309 an x-comet, but gave it the benefit of the doubt. I don't understand why I couldn't find it in C2 though. If I've missed it, please let me know. And as always, please let me know of any mistakes, etc, in here.
I have a very long list of SOHO archive reports that I plan to look at as soon as I finish the December comets. Hopefully I can have them done soon.
Best wishes for 2022!
