TCP J07454958-2442056: most likely a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova

TCP J07454958-2442056 was discovered by Yuji Nakamura on 13th Oct 2025 at 14.0 mag (unfiltered). According to VSX, the outburst amplitude is ~8.2 mag. https://vsx.aavso.org/index.php?view=detail.top&oid=10868099

Josch Hambsch and Sjoerd Dufoer have reported the time-resolved observations of this source. The light curve shows possible superhumps with a period of ~0.055 d, although I cannot conclude due to its faintness and 1-d aliases. Given its large outburst amplitude, almost 40-d outburst duration, and short superhump period, TCP J07454958-2442056 is most likely a new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova. Note that the system has already faded below the detection level of ATLAS. https://fallingstar-data.com/forcedphot/queue/3502597/
