FS Aur outburst: observations requested
According to AAVSO News Flash No. 749, the ultrashort period dwarf nova
FS Aur appears to be in outburst. The reported magnitude (13.84V on Mar.
7.1811 UT) is one of the brightest ones. Since this object is peculiar
in that no confirmed superoutbursts has been observed while it has one of
the shortest known orbital periods among dwarf novae, detailed time-reolved
photometry during this bright outburst is strongly recommended.
No major outbursts have been reported to VSNET in the 2000-2001 season.
The present apparent outburst is selected as one of prime targets
of the VSNET Collaboration team.
