OT J075414.5+313216: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova
Enrique de Miguel just reported:
Comments: Clear skies, but relatively large errors due to moonlight.
Target detected in outburst by CRTS as communicated
through VSNet (vsnet-alert 13153) on 14 April ~06:30 UT.
Target position 07:54:14.52 +31:32:16.1 (J2000.0).
Short run (~3.5 hours) that shows this target at a mean
magnitude of ~14.9. Errors are relatively large
(bright background) but modulations of ~0.22 mag
(peak-to-peak) can be seen. From ANOVa analysis,
the periodicity of the modulations is 0.064(6) d
after linearly detrending the data.
Further data will refine this value.
The main features of the light curve are clearly
those of a typical UGSU-type star.
