[vsnet-alert 20939] Re: PNV J20422233+2712111 is probably a dwarf nova (UGWZ?)

[Gianluca Masi]

Dear Colleagues,

this star was observed with the 14" robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope 
Project in Italy.

After two hours of observations, we see this transient is clearly showing 
0.1-mag.large superhumps. with period of around 90 minutes.

More details will follow.

Best Regards
Gianluca Masi
