[vsnet-alert 4485] KR Aur mild brightening

[Taichi Kato <tkato>]

KR Aur mild brightening

  Several reports have suggested a mild brightening of the VY Scl-type
cataclysmic variable KR Aur.  The object has been in an extended low (faint)
state since 1997 March, during which the star was only occasionally seen.
More intensive observations are strongly urged to monitor its behavior.
