* 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) V551 Sgr: definite superoutburst of a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova.
Top-priority star for the southern observers! Superhumps were first
definitely detected in Roland Stantallo's observation.
(2) V585 Lyr: superoutburst of a short-period (superhump period 0.06016 d)
system. The superhump amplitude has (likely temporarily) decayed,
which is expected to regrow at later stages.
(3) OR And: hump-like variation evident in Tom Krajci's data.
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, Imada-san and me,
and are expected to be more convenient than personal e-mails to separate
addresses.
