[vsnet-alert 10466] NSV00601 outburst (and past info)

   According to Eddy Muyllaert, NSV00601 is undergoing the first
outburst since its historical one in 2001.
(See past info attached below)

   A closer look at the 2001 outburst data, I noticed:
the object faded by 0.2 mag on the first night, and the outburst lasted
at least for 15 days.  These features suggest that the object might be
a borderline object somewhere between usual SU UMa - WZ Sge subclasses.
(Might be similar to BC UMa and others).  Please observe to see whether
the current outburst rapidly fades or not.

[vsnet-alert 8620] NSV 601 = New dwarf nova

Dear colleagues,

I have found a new dwarf nova in ASAS data.
It is NSV 601, although the GCVS position and identification for NSV 601 is 
for another star, 2MASS J01422764-2216294 (J= 14.53; J-K 0.47) and 2UCAC 
22828004 (mag. 15.89). It is in the NPM1 catalogue (NPM -22.0272) with V= 
15.64 and B-V= 0.68.

The new UG is not in 2MASS or UCAC2 (no outbursts in NSVS either)

It is in the PHL Catalog of faint blue stars at 18.7p. This one IS the star. 
The PHL position agrees with ASAS. The fact that it is a blue star confirms 
the identification.
PHL 3638 is also:
USNO A-2.0 0675-00607322 = 01 42 25.249 -22 15 57.16 (B= 18.4)
USNO B-1.0 0677-0026724 = 01 42 25.28 -22 15 58.3 (B= 18.8)
GSC2.2 S00300011770 = 01 42 25.247 -22 15 56.73 (Bj= 18.48)

It is not in the 2005 version of the Downes catalogue.

The maximum magnitude in the 15-days long outburst recorded by ASAS (the 
only one to date in November 2001) is V= 12.2.
It is ASAS 014225-2216.0. See the lightcurve here:
http://www.astrouw.edu.pl/cgi-asas/asas_lc/014225-2216.0

NSV 601 is 12.2 at maximum (12.2 - <14.4) and it is BV 1187.

So NSV 601 is USNO A-2.0 0675-00607322 and it is a new UG star with an 
approximate range 12.2 - 18.7.

Which subtype it is and future work is in the hands of you, CV specialists!
Surely you will look at photographic plates and find more outbursts of this 
thing.

Best wishes,
Sebastian.

[vsnet-alert 8621] NSV601 is likely a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova

   The following ASAS-3 data suggest a superoutburst of
an SU UMa-type dwarf nova.
