[vsnet-outburst 23213] MASTER OT J070737.08+104933.7: new SU UMa type dwarf nova

[Tonny Vanmunster tonny.vanmunster@gmail.com via vsnet-outburst]

Dear colleagues,

I have just concluded the analysis of my 2019, Jan 12/13 unfiltered CCD photometry sessions of MASTER OT J070737.08+104933.7. Observations were made at CBA Extremadura Observatory (Spain),  using a 0.40-m f/5.1 telescope and SX-46 CCD camera, under very clear skies.  

 

The resulting light curve clearly shows the presence of superhumps with an amplitude of 0.25 mag, hence classifying this object as a new SU UMa type dwarf nova.  A period analysis using the ANOVA, Lomb-Scargle and PDM methods (Peranso), yields a combined superhump period of 0.0629 +/- 0.0016d. The object was at mag 15.3 (CV) on Jan 13th. 

 

I will send my observations to AAVSO, CBA and VSNET for further analysis. 

 

Follow-up observations are highly recommended to further refine the superhump period.

 

Best regards
Tonny
