[vsnet-alert 1279] New dwarf nova in Aur

  In IAUC 6758, the BAO supernova survey team has discovered another
dwarf nova in outburst.

   07h 27m 52s.20
   +40o 46' 55".5  (J2000.0)

  The object was observed at R=15.7 on Oct. 19.82 and R=15.9 on Oct. 20.77.
Although the BAO team points out by spectroscopy the resemblance to CY Lyr,
the large outburst amplitude (>5 mag) would make this another good candidate
for superhump hunting.  Looking forward to hearing good news!

Best regards,
Taichi Kato
