All Tables

Table 1: Observers, observatory, telescopes and CCDs for measurements.
Table 2: Nova candidate designations, positions and discoverers. For offset we used $\alpha_{\rm J2000} = 9^{\rm h}55^{\rm m}33\hbox{$.\!\!^{\rm s}$ }173, \delta_{\rm J2000} = +69\degr03\hbox{$^\prime$ }55\hbox{$.\!\!^{\prime\prime}$ }06$ as reference position of the M 81 center. Discoverers for individual nova candidates are given under the column ``Disc.''. For photometric data of individual nova candidates, see Table 4.
Table 3: Numbers of CN candidates located bottom of the bulge, top of the bulge, and bottom-to-top ratio (BTR), within 90 $^{\prime \prime }$ , 150 $^{\prime \prime }$ , and 210 $^{\prime \prime }$ , respectively, of the nucleus of M 81 from this work, Shara et al. (1999), and Neill & Shara (2004). See text for details.
Table 4: Photometry of nova candidates. Observers, observatories, telescopes and CCDs for measurements are coded in column comment according to Table 1. Note that the measurements in F814W and F658N filters of HST-ACS are in STMAG photometric system. Measurements in band coded as ``clear'' are from unfiltered images, using R-band magnitudes from comparison stars. Measurements with errors in order of hundredths of magnitude are stated in two decimal places; measurements with errors >0.1 mag and <0.3 mag are stated in one decimal place; the ``:'' mark is used for measurements with uncertainty >0.3 mag.
Table 5: Photometry of nova candidates discovered by Neill & Shara (2004). Observers, observatories, telescopes and CCDs for measurements are coded in column comment according to Table 1. See caption of Table 1 for explanation of magnitude format. Designation of nova candidates used here is the same as in Neill & Shara (2004).
