TCP J21091443-0917104 (=ASASSN-25dq): new SU UMa-type dwarf nova
NMW Survey discovered TCP J21091443-0917104 at 12.4 mag on 2025 08 22.8877 UCT. They suspected it could be a new UV Cet star based on its coincidence with the bright Gaia object (Gaia DR3 6896395696896704000; G=14.44, Plx=3.12 +/-0.04 mas). https://vsx.aavso.org/index.php?view=detail.top&oid=10867963 http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/unconf/followups/J21091443-0917104.html
S. Brincat and J. Hambsch have reported the time-resolved observations. Combining the observations by W. Goltz on AAVSO, I obtained a single-peak variation with a period of 0.05887(3) d, from the outburst maximum. ZTF light curve also shows a slow decline over the last two weeks, which is unlike a UV Cet star but agrees with a dwarf nova outburst. https://alerce.online/object/ZTF21abtlwbr
Thus TCP J21091443-0917104 is most likely a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova. Considering its relatively short superhump period and expected large amplitude of outburst, the Gaia object can be a foreground star. The object is currently g=14.2 mag.
