[vsnet-campaign-dn 17531] TCP J20131357+1154031: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova, possibly WZ Sge-type

TCP J20131357+1154031: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova, possibly WZ Sge-type K. Itagaki discovered TCP J20131357+1154031 on 2025-05-19 UTC at 14.7 mag (unfiltered). The outburst amplitude is ~8.4 mag. https://www.aavso.org/vsx/index.php?view=detail.top&oid=10848625 SAAO/Lesedi telescope, Josch Hambsch, and Sano-san have reported the time-resolved observations. Josch's observations after 28 May show single-peaked variation with a period of 0.05797(6) d, likely an ordinary superhump. No clear modulations were presented before this. Thus TCP J20131357+1154031 is a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova and a good candidate for a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova, given its late appearance of ordinary superhumps.

[vsnet-campaign-dn 17530] ASASSN-25ce: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova
by Yusuke Tampo 02 Jun '25

ASASSN-25ce: new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova ASAS-SN discovered ASASSN-25ce on 2025-05-28 UTC at 12.26 mag. The Gaia counterpart is G~20.7 mag thus the outburst amplitude is ~8.5 mag. The SAAO team and Berto Monard reported the time-resolved observations. These light curves show a double-peak modulation with an amplitude of ~0.1 mag and a period of ~0.05537(1) d. The 5-sec resolution observations by the SAAO/Lesedi telescope also show QPO-like modulation with 5--10 min. Hence, ASASSN-25ce is a new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova, possibly with a relatively higher inclination, while no clear eclipses are present. Further time-resolved observations are encouraged.

[vsnet-campaign-dn 17526] ASASSN-25ca: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova

ASASSN-25ca: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova ASAS-SN reported ASASSN-25ca on 2025-05-20 at g=14.1. https://www.aavso.org/vsx/index.php?view=detail.top&oid=10848671 Berto Monard and Josch Hambsch reported the time-resolved observations of ASASSN-25ca. Their observations on 29 May show ordinary superhumps with a period of 0.0588(1) d. Observations on 27 May also show a hint of superhumps but the baseline was too short. Thus, ASASSN-25ca is a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova, and could be a WZ Sge-type based on its short superhump period, large outburst amplitude, and lack of previous outbursts.

ASASSN-15ca: SU UMa-type dwarf nova According to ASAS-SN and Atlas, outbursts in Jan. 2015, Feb 2022, and May 2025 (as AT 2025mbw reported by MASTER). My observations with the SAAO/Lesedi telescope on 27 May 2025 detected superhumps with a period of ~0.0589(2) d. -- ---------------------------------------------- South African Astronomical Observatory, Postdoc fellow Yusuke TAMPO / 反保雄介 EMAIL: tampo(a)kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp ALT.

[vsnet-campaign-dn 17523] ASASSN-25bz: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova

ASASSN-25bz: new SU UMa-type dwarf nova ASASSN-25bz (=AT 2025lkr) was discovered at 14.8 mag on 20 May by ASAS-SN. The suggested outburst amplitude is ~8 mag according to the VSX. ASAS-SN reported to the TNS that this could be a classical nova based on its low Galactic latitude b~-2.0 deg. https://www.aavso.org/vsx/index.php?view=detail.top&oid=10848672 I obtained the time-resolved observations of ASASSN-25bz with the SAAO/Lesedi telescope on 26 and 27 May. Its light curve shows a prominent ordinary superhump with an amplitude of 0.15 mag and a period of ~0.0561(1) d (1-d aliases are possible). The optical spectrum obtained on 23 May with the SAAO/Lesedi telescope is dominated by Balmer absorption lines. Thus, I conclude that ASASSN-25bz is a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova. The system is around 15.6 mag.
