[vsnet-campaign-be 171] Lambda Pavonis outburst

["Sebastian Otero" <varsao@fullzero.com.ar>]

Dear all:

In our first observation of the year of lambda Pavonis, Cecilia Scalia and I
found the star in a extremely bright state: brighter than 4.0. We don't know
how long has been this bright state lasting. The GCVS lists the star as
varying between 4.00 and 4.26, but I noticed that in previous editions the
total range was as bright as 3.6. Maybe it was recorded but -given the
subsequent behaviour of the star- then rejected?
Anyway, keep an eye on it.
The normal quiescent state is around 4.15 - 4.27 in V.

PAVlambda       20020224.332     3.98    SCO
PAVlambda       20020224.334     3.98    OSE

Regards,
Sebastian and Cecilia.
