PU Per outburst

   The SU UMa-type dwarf nova PU Per, with relatively rare outbursts,
is in outburst.  Time-resolved photometry is encouraged.
Although the reality of the detection was not confirmed,
Morelle's positive observation on Dec. 27 may have been a precursor.
If this outburst is a superoutburst, it will provide a great opportunity
to determine its superhump period precisely.
