[vsnet-alert 9130] AW Sge possible superoutburst

[Taichi Kato]

   The SU UMa-type dwarf nova AW Sge is undergoing a
possible superoutburst.  The last reported major outburst
was in 2004 May (14.8C, Schmeer).

   If these observations have caught most of major outbursts,
the supercycle may be relatively long (2 yr?).
Further observations are encouraged (priority next to EG Aqr).
