VSNET Weekly Campaign Summary *** Last week news *** (new targets) SN 2000ek (RA = 02h10m30s.04, Dec = -53d49'28".0) This new supernova appeared in the host galaxy ESO 153-G27. The magnitude on November 7 and 8 is 17.0. The location is about 22" west and 44" north of the center of the host. H. Yamaoka reported the expected maximum of typical SN Ia is mag about 16 (vsnet-campaign-sn 107). (continuous targets) SN 2000dx (RA = 02h18m26s.88, Dec = +05d39'02".0) H. Yamaoka forwarded the observation report by M. Frederick which shows the magnitude of 15.26 on November 8. This value is nearly 2 mag brighter than the expected in [vsnet-alert 5357] and [vsnet-campaign-sn 105] (vsnet-campaign-sn 107). V1028 Cyg (RA = 20h00m52.13s, Dec = +56d56'22.3") Kyoto team reported on November 9 that V1028 Cyg had faded to R=15.5. This indicates a decline rate of November 6-9 is about 0.4mag/d and the duration is rather shorter than typical superoutbursts (vsnet-campaign-dn 240). Delta Vel (RA = 08h44m42s.1, Dec = -54d42'30") B. Fraser reported observations corrected using appropriate magnitudes of comparison stars and show no significant variability out of eclipse on November 4, 5, and 6 (vsnet-campaign-deltavel 19). S. Otero showed a new eclipse ephemeris with a period of 45.15100 days (see also [vsnet-campaign-deltavel 23]. He commented that observations on November 12/13 are important to rule out another period of 27.10 day definitively (vsnet-campaign-deltavel 22). On November 12, S. Otero reported no eclipse was observed at that time and the 45.150 day period is now almost real (vsnet-campaign-deltavel 24). BL Lac (RA = 22h02m42.86s, Dec = +42d16'37.6") The object is slightly fainter as reported by D. Rodriguez, V=14.35 on November 9 (vsnet-campaign-blazar 90). PKS 2005-489 (RA = 20h05m47.4s, -48d58'45".0) The object is still active (vsnet-campaign-blazar 91). *** General information *** Delta Vel S. Otero presents a good pair of comparison stars in [vsnet-campaign-deltavel 20] and see also [vsnet-campaign-deltavel 21] New eclipse ephemeris reported by S.
