[vsnet-alert 422] V592 Her in outburst!?

[Daisaku Nogami <nogami@kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp>]

Dear colleagues,

  Pierre Ouimet reports an outburst of V592 Her in vsnet-obs 2850
(originally in vsnet 629) as follows:

V592HER 960525.123      15.3

This star is suspected to be a WZ Sge star and a possible TOAD.
Two outbursts have been observed in 1968 [1] and 1986 [2] and the
recorded maximum brightnesses were 12.3 and 13.6 mag, respectively.
Pierre might caught a new outburst in the rising phase, which is
reminiscent of the uproar of the last year outburst in AL Com.
Urgent confirmation is highly wanted.

Best regards,
Daisaku Nogami

[1] Richter 1968, IBVS No. 293
[2] Richter 1991, IBVS No. 3619
