[vsnet-alert 26319] PNV J00444033+4113068: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova
by Taichi Kato 13 Oct '21

13 Oct '21

PNV J00444033+4113068: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova Tamas Tordai has reported observations. The object showed large-amplitude (0.7 mag!) early superhumps with a period of 0.0553(4) d. This object must have a high inclination and further observations are very encouraged.

[vsnet-alert 26318] PNV J00444033+4113068 = AT 2021aaxp: galaxtic dwarf nova in the field of M31
by FIDRICH Róbert 12 Oct '21

12 Oct '21

Dear Friends, PNV J00444033+4113068 = AT 2021aaxp: galaxtic dwarf nova in the field of M31 discovered by K. Itagaki. at 16.5 mag (unfiltered) on 2021-10-09.4579. He further reported that it was brightening: 15.7 mag on 2021-10-09.584, and 15.3 mag on 2021-10-09.806 Also, Dave Balam et al. discovered it identically at 17.77 mag (G-Gaia) on 2021-10-09.6125. There is a possible counterpart of g = 22.32 in the PS1 Mean object catalog.

[vsnet-alert 26314] LL And rapid fading
by Taichi Kato 11 Oct '21

LL And rapid fading Itoh-san's most recent observation on Sep. 10 indicated that the object faded to 17th mag. Please keep an eye on this object to look for possible rebrightening(s).

[vsnet-alert 26313] ASASSN-19ax: temporary brightening
by Taichi Kato 09 Oct '21

09 Oct '21

ASASSN-19ax: temporary brightening According to Itoh-san's observations, this object showed a 1-mag brightening on Oct. 4 and 5. Similar two brightenings were apparently present in ASAS-3 and ZTF data during the 2019 Jan. superoutburst. The phenomenon appears to be different from post-superoutburst rebrightenings in WZ Sge (and a few SU UMa) stars.

[vsnet-alert 26312] ASASSN-14lb: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova
by tonny.vanmunster＠gmail.com 09 Oct '21

09 Oct '21

Dear colleagues, I have just finished analysing my unfiltered CMOS observations of ASASSN-14lb, obtained on 2021, October 08/09 at CBA Belgium Observatory, using a 0.40-m f/10.0 telescope and QHY-268M CMOS camera under clear skies. My observations were triggered by [vsnet-alert 26304]. Regular superhumps with an amplitude of 0.28 mag are clearly visible in the resulting light curve, establishing ASASSN-14lb 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 0.0704 +/- 0.0006d. The object was at mag CV = 16.5 on Oct 09th. I will send my observations to AAVSO, CBA and VSNET for further analysis.

LL And outburst Of course, this is a top-priority target! The 2004 superoutburst occurred in June and no good observations were reported. See https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2004PASJ...56S.135K/abstract for the 1993 superoutburst. Determination of the superhump period is very important.

The nova was still quite bright on the I-band images. https://twitter.com/fidusz/status/1445134503463329798 PGIR21git 2021 10 04.4148 13.997I (0.016) FID PGIR21git 2021 10 04.4206 16.490R (0.013) FID PGIR21git 2021 10 04.4206 <18.0V FID the photometry is average of 2x120s I, R-band and V-band images, respectively. Indeed a highly reddened nova. Follow-up photometry with I and R-band filters is recommended. Clear skies, Robert Fidrich HAA/VSS
