QW Ser outburst The SU UMa-type dwarf nova QW Ser is undergoing an outburst. The last superoutburst was observed in 2001 Feb. (cf. vsnet-campaign 714, 740, 750), which followed a rather atypical course associated with a likely precursor well before the supermaximum. Although the interval since the last superoutburst is not long, the present brightness may encourage further detailed observations. YYYYMMDD(UT) mag observer 20010424.014 <135 (H.
