[vsnet-newvar 3306] Re: OT J145921.8+354806 is a new SU UMa star, possibly in the period gap

[Gianluca Masi]

Dear Colleagues,

after 4.5 hours of photometry, I obtained this light curve:

http://virtualtelescope.bellatrixobservatory.org/OT_TJ145921_8_354806_16june2011.jpg

I obtained an estimate for Psh=(2.08+/-0.05) hours.

data have been sent to Kyoto for further analysis.

Kind regards,
Gianluca
