RX Cha outburst As reported by Rod Stubbings, the SU UMa-type dwarf nova RX Cha is undergoing an outburst. The superhump detection by Gordon Garradd was reported in IBVS 5117 (2001), but this period needs to be confirmed by further extensive observations. The last two outbursts were in 2002 April (superoutburst?) and 2002 December (normal outburst?). Although the current visibility is not extremely favorable, its circumpolar position would allow time-series observation. Observations are thus strongly encouraged!
