Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 4762 = Bigourdan 332 is a double star at exactly the position measured by Bigourdan. Until I found that it was a double star, I thought that it might be NGC 6678 (which see) found by Swift, with an identical declination. However, Bigourdan's double star is probably too faint to have been described as "pB" by Swift. At least the identity of IC 4762 is clear.
