Dear all!
Pavel Balanutsa has discovered yet another bright CV (the second one
in 3 hours!) in MASTER-Amur data of Sep. 30. This one is in Orion. It
was named MASTER OT J054317.95+093114.8 and announced in Astronomer's
Telegram ATel #4446 <http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=4446>.
The amplitude of outburst is more than 7m. Unfiltered magnitude with
the red zero point was 13.3-13.4, and there is nothing at this
position in DSS plates to 21m. The 10'x10' color combined (BRIR)
finder chart is uploaded to

I have obtained confirmation images from MASTER-Tunka telescope
simultaneously in two tubes with two filters (V and I). The image
quality in Tunka was worse than Amur images 2 nights ago, so the
photometry is only good to 0.1m. However, it definitely shows that the
object is blue which means it is a dwarf nova rather than classical
Nova.
The photometry follows.
MASTER OT J054317.95+093114.8
20120930.755 133CR MASTER-Amur
20120930.785 134CR MASTER-Amur
20121002.764 142V MASTER-Tunka
20121002.764 143I MASTER-Tunka
The Moon is 45 deg away and approaching yet closer in the next 3
nights. Hopefully someone will be able to obtain time series for this
object, too!
