* Data: data request, 1 = VSNET core team, data will be received by
campaign report list. 2 = as above, in collaboration with
Hachisu-san. 3 = as above, in collaboration with Sumner Starrfield
(1) V4641 Sgr: needless to say, top priority!! Galactic microquasar
in violent outburst (both optical and in X-rays)
Full-time observation with high-time resolution (better than 15s)
is extremely needed. Continue observing as long as you can,
as long as the object is active!

(2) V4743 Sgr: Chandra observation on July 18. Follow-up optical
observations are still needed. We would be happy to receive data
regardless of the observing epoch.
Please closely watch vsnet-alert and vsnet-outburst for other new
outbursts.

*** Notice ***
This list is "read-only", i.e. it is used only for announcement of
the target lists. Other information, as well as reports and discussions
on particular targets, should be directed to the appropriate VSNET campaign
sub-lists (e.g. vsnet-campaign-dn for dwarf novae).
Nightly time-series observations should be now directed to (rather than
private e-mails):
---------------------------------------------------
vsnet-campaign-report@ooruri.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp
---------------------------------------------------
Reports sent to this address will be delivered to the VSNET campaign
local staffs, including Ishioka-san, Uemura-san and me, and are expected
to be more convenient than personal e-mails to separate addresses.
