[vsnet-alert 15638] Re: Next HST observations: QZ Lib & SDSS1544+2553

[Boris Gaensicke]

Dear All,

we have another target scheduled for HST observations,

SDSS1544+2553:  May 1, 2013 04:06:20 to 08:17:24

This is a long-period (6h) dwarf nova discovered
by SDSS, which is eclipsing, and has reasonably
frequent outbursts (CRTS light
curve<http://nesssi.cacr.caltech.edu/catalina/20010319/103191230504100327p.html>).
The last
few points collected by Gordon Myers and
Stuart Littlefair suggest a brightening, maybe
the onset of an outburst - please start
monitoring his star closely.

And thanks a lot for all the updates on QZ Lib,
this one is so far behaving well, but we will
need to keep a close eye on it for another
few days as well.

QZ-Lib    Apr 26, 2013 14:37:44 to 21:23:30

Best wishes,

Boris
