[vsnet-alert 10073] V844 Her very bright superoutburst continues

[Taichi Kato]

   V844 Her very bright superoutburst continues.

   This object is very similar to SW UMa, which is renowned for its
occasional extremely bright superoutbursts (e.g. 1986 and 1990,
reaching mag 9).  The present outburst of V844 Her may be of the
same kind.  Time-resolved photometry is encouraged since different
photometric behavior may be expected for such a bright outburst.
