30 May '23

ASASSN-15si: another HT Cam-like object? Rapidly fading outbursts only (ATLAS and others). Time-resolved photometry by Vanmunster on 2015 Nov. 3 recorded large-amplitude modulations with a scale of two hours superimposed on rapid fading.

[vsnet-chat 9416] ASASSN-14hg: superoutbursts with multiple rebrightenings

ASASSN-14hg: superoutbursts with multiple rebrightenings From ATLAS+ASAS-SN(DB). Typical one in 2021 June. Also in 2016 Sep. and 2017 Nov.-Dec. Too frequent for a WZ Sge star and rapid fading from rebrightenings suggest either EI Psc or AM CVn star.

[vsnet-chat 9401] V854 Cen Possible Decline Onset
by Peter Williams 27 May '23

27 May '23

Good morning, The bright southern RCB star V854 Cen has shown a gradual fading over the past 2 weeks, suggesting the possible onset of a deep decline may have commenced. This star was at visual magnitude 8.0 last night (May 18), a half magnitude below its normal maximum brightness. Typically, if it fades to magnitude 8.5 it will continue onto a deep decline. Observations over the next few days will confirm if this does indeed occur. The previous deep decline commenced in July 2022. Recent visual observations of V854 Cen: CEN V854 20230427.428 75 WPX CENV854 20230501.397 74 WPX CENV854 20230504.422 74 WPX CENV854 20230510.393 76 WPX CENV854 20230512.381 76 WPX CENV854 20230516.364 79 WPX CENV854 20230518.448 80 WPX Tks & regards Peter Williams Heathcote NSW 10x50mm binoculars

ELAISN1MOS15-02 classification and period https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.13371 "Cataclysmic Variables from Sloan Digital Sky Survey V -- the search for period bouncers continues" I could not confirm the claimed period for ELAISN1 MOS15-02 = SDSS J160809.54+542131.4. The fading rates of outbursts appear to me to small for the claimed period. This object is still a mystery one to me. SDSS J182643.55+613816.5 is the already known object MASTER OT J182643.42+613816 (SU UMa).
