Gaia21efs: likely CV (dwarf nova?)
Tonny Vanmunster reported observations. The data
show 0.15 mag variations (flickering or part of
early superhumps?). The object is thus unlikely
a microlensing, but likely a CV. Spectroscopy is
encouraged.
OT J002656.6+284933 superhumps
(=CSS101212:002657+284933)
Sano-san and Tamas Tordai have reported observations.
0.3-mag superhumps are clearly present.
OT J002656.6+284933 superoutburst
(=CSS101212:002657+284933)
This object is known as an SU UMa star above
the period gap with multiple rebrightenings.
The last outburst was recorded in 2016.

OGLE-MC-DN-0008: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova
Josch Hambsch has reported observations on two nights.
The object shows 0.17-mag superhumps with a period
of 0.06056(8) d.
ASASSN-21tr: superhump period
Tonny Vanmunster, Tamas Tordai and Itoh-san have
reported observations. The superhump period since
Oct. 25 is 0.0666(2) d. The amplitude is still
small (0.06 mag) and they are most likely stage A
superhumps.
XM78HT: regular superhumps
The most recent data by Kyoto U. team on Oct. 26
detected clear ordinary superhumps. The superhumps
started growing on Oct. 25 (Vihorlat Obs. team).
The current period (stage A) is 0.05596(8) d.
IPHAS J184326.48+060800.9 (eclipsing polar) high state
http://gsaweb.ast.cam.ac.uk/alerts/alert/Gaia21ewn/
High state of this polar has not been seen
in the ZTF data. First time in recent years.
See [vsnet-chat 8874] (Sep. 22) about the nature of
this object.
Dear colleagues,
I have been collecting unfiltered CCD observations of ASASSN-21tr over the
past several nights at CBA Extremadura Observatory, using a 0.40-m f/5.1
telescope and SX-46 CCD camera under (mostly) clear skies.
The collected light curves did not show obvious periodic modulations, with
the exception of last night Oct 25/26, 2021. Regular superhumps with an
amplitude of 0.11 mag are clearly visible, establishing ASASSN-21tr as a new
SU UMa-type dwarf nova. A period analysis using the ANOVA, Lomb-Scargle,
Generalized-Lomb-Scargle and PDM methods (Peranso 3.0), yields a combined
superhump period of 0.0647 +/- 0.0012d. The object was at mag CV = 15.4 on
Oct 25th.
I will send my observations to AAVSO, CBA and VSNET for further analysis.
Best regards
Tonny
