[vsnet-alert 298] outburst observation of V701 Tau

[tkato@kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp]

   Preliminary anysis of CCD frames taken at Ouda Station (Kyoto Uni-
versity) gives the following astrometry of V701 Tau.

  03h 44m 01s.91  +21o 57' 07".2  (J2000.0)   4 GSC stars

   Rather large difference from the Iida's value may be due to insufficient
number of comparison stars in the CCD frame.

   An outburst image can be obtained from ftp.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp
(anonymous login), under /pub/vsnet/DNe/V701_Tau, file v701-2.gif.
Time-resolved photometry has shown a gradual decline of 0.10 mag in four
hours.  Although there is some hint of low amplitude modulation, we could
not find a firm evidence of superhumps.
