TCP J13560585+3727068: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova
TCP J13560585+3727068 was discovered on 2025 04 26.7039 (UTC) at 14.3 mag
(unfiltered). GIven the possible counterpart of Gaia G~20.8 and peak in
ASAS-SN around 13.5 mag on 2025 04 24, the outburst amplitude is ~7.3 mag
Itoh-san reported the time-resolved observations of TCP J13560585+3727068
on 2024 04 28 and 29. The light curve shows double-peaked modulations with
the tentative period is 0.0574(1) d (aliases are possible) with ~0.04-mag
amplitude.
Thus, TCP J13560585+3727068 is likely a new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova.

Time-resolved observations are encouraged.

TCP J08374922+0134065: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova with large early
superhump amplitude
TCP J08374922+0134065 was discovered by Y. Nakamura on 3rd April at 14.7
mag. Based on the suggested counterpart (GALEX J083749.2+013407) with
g=20.22(2) and the brightest ASAS-SN measurement with g~13.4 mag, the
outburst amplitude is 6.8mag.

Itoh-san has reported the time-resolved observations on 6th April and the
light curve shows a double-peaked modulation with a period of ~0.059 d and
an amplitude of 0.2 mag with possible eclipses.
Thus TCP J08374922+0134065 is a new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova with high
inclination.
Time-resolved observations are strongly encouraged.

Yusuke

Dear colleagues,
I have just completed the analysis of my unfiltered CCD observations of TCP
J06455595+1210577, obtained on Apr 01/02, 2025 at CBA Belgium Observatory.
The data was collected using a 0.40-m f/10.0 telescope and QHY-268M CMOS
camera under clear skies. This object was recently discovered by XOSS and
announced as a possible CV candidate (see
http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/unconf/followups/J06455595+1210577.html)
The light curve clearly reveals the presence of regular superhumps with an
amplitude of 0.29 mag, establishing TCP J06455595+1210577 as a new SU
UMa-type dwarf nova. A period analysis, using the ANOVA, Lomb-Scargle,
Generalized-Lomb-Scargle and PDM methods (Peranso 3.1) yields a combined
superhump period of 0.0731 +/- 0.0014d. The object was measured at mag CV =
16.2 on Apr 01st.
Image calibration and photometry were performed using Phoranso, allowing me
to simultaneously measure 4 other variables within the field of view of TCP
J06455595+1210577.
Further observations are encouraged to refine the superhump period.
I will submit my observations to AAVSO, CBA and VSNET for further analysis.
With kind regards,
Tonny
