Dear All,

a quick heads-up on the next two HST observations. We
don't have the exact date yet, but the tentative schedule
looks like this:

SDSS0137-0912: Sep 10, 2013 - Sep 16, 2013
BB Ari: Sep 23, 2013 - Sep 30, 2013

SDSS0137-0912 is a short-period dwarf nova, I would
call it borderline WZ Sge, with outbursts recurring every
few years. The last one that I am aware of was in December 2012.

BB Ari is a relatively poorly studied SU UMa dwarf nova, and is just
finishing a superoutburst.

Best wishes,

Boris
