[vsnet-outburst 25701] ATLAS20yzy (= ASASSN-20lf, ZTF20abypgvs, AT 2020spm)

Wed Sep 16 03:05:43 JST 2020

 Dear fellow observers,

Please note that the VSX primary name for this dwarf nova
(superoutburst) has been changed (ATLAS reported the
transient three days before ASAS-SN, see TNS reference):

As Shibata-san writes, further time-resolved photometry
is encouraged.

Clear skies,
Patrick

 ASASSN-20lf: the emergence of superhump

Itoh-san, Moriyama-san, Tonny Vanmunster. and Kyoto Univ. observatory have
reported the observations for ASASSN-20lf (=ZTF20abypgvs).

The observations by Kyoto Univ. observatory on 14th Sep. showed a superhump
with a period of 0.0561(3) d and an amplitude of ~0.15 mag.
The first detection was 2020-09-04.24(UT) and the magnitude was 15.26(V)
mag. Because of the large outburst amplitude and the long delay time(10
days) of superhump appearance, this object is a good candidate for WZ
Sge-type star.

.

More observations will clarify the period.
