ASASSN-14cc (AM CVn star) https://www.aavso.org/vsx/index.php?view=detail.top&oid=398940 Apparently not much activity in recent months: after a normal outburst on 2021 May 23, the only recorded brightening was a double outburst on August 4-10 and 13-18, according to ASAS-SN Sky Patrol (Shappee et al. 2014ApJ...788...48S and Kochanek et al. 2017PASP..129j4502K) data. https://asas-sn.osu.edu/sky-patrol/coordinate/d031a323-285e-44df-9854-81a0e… Regards, Patrick ------- Taichi Kato wrote on Wednesday, 28 January 2015, 07:40:45 UTC: ASASSN-14cc Let's continue observations in the next season, too. http://arxiv.org/abs/1501.06659 Title: ASASSN-14cc: Likely Helium Analog of RZ Leonis Minoris Authors: Taichi Kato (Kyoto U), Franz-Josef Hambsch (GEOS, BAV, Vereniging Voor Sterrenkunde), Berto Monard (Center for Backyard Astronomy Kleinkaroo) Categories: astro-ph.SR Comments: 5 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in PASJ (Letters) License: http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/ \\ We identified that ASASSN-14cc is a very active dwarf nova spending approximately 60% of the time in outburst. Our long-term photometry revealed that the object shows long outbursts recurring with a period of 21-33 d and very brief short outbursts lasting less than 1 d. The maximum decline rate exceeds 2.8 mag/d. The duration of long outbursts is 9-18 d, comprising 50-60% of the recurrence time of long outbursts. We detected 0.01560-0.01562 d (22.5 min) modulations during long outbursts, which we identified to be superhumps. These features indicate that ASASSN-14cc has outburst parameters very similar to the extreme dwarf nova RZ LMi but with a much shorter superhump period. All the observations can be naturally understood considering that this object is a helium analog (AM CVn-type object) of RZ LMi. The highest outburst activity among AM CVn-type objects can be understood as the high-mass transfer rate expected for the orbital period giving a condition close to the stability limit of the accretion disk. In contrast to RZ LMi, this object shows little evidence for premature quenching of the superoutburst, which has been proposed to explain the unusual outburst parameters in RZ LMi.

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-campaign-dn 16040] ASASSN-19ax: temporary brightening
by Taichi Kato 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-campaign-dn 16039] ASASSN-14lb: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova
by tonny.vanmunster＠gmail.com 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.
