[vsnet-obs 39422] L2 Puppis Rapid Brightening?



Hi All,

The SR star L2 Pup has been undergoing a faint episode over the past few
years as mentioned in recent vsnet chats.  Although still faint, it appears
to have undergone a rapid brightening in the last few nights as indicated
by the following observations, all with 10x50mm binoculars.

STAR	YYMMDD(UT)	MAG	OBSERVER

PUPL2	20020402.406	74	WPX
PUPL2	20020406.400	74	WPX

PUPL2	20020411.452	64	WPX
PUPL2	20020411.514	64	WPX


Others with access to this southerly star may like to confirm this
behaviour and follow its duration.
