Historically brightest Be star outbursts
Could someone tell us the historically brightest Be star outbursts?
Every northern observer would probably know gamma Cas itself underwent
an outburst reaching mv=1.6, but I know little about southern objects.
Are there any similar recorded bright star phenomena?
I know alpha Eri is a Be star (V=0.5), but is not very variable.
The other two stars Sebastian listed have much fainter (alpha Ara: 2.86 -
3.00 V; eta Cen: 2.30 - 2.41 V).
