[vsnet-campaign 1222] AK Cnc outburst

AK Cnc outburst

   As reported by Mike Simonsen (vsnet-outburst 3058), the SU UMa-type
dwarf nova AK Cnc is undergoing an outburst.

   CNCAK 011110.2035  13.2   SXN  OUTBURST

   The brightness may suggest a superoutburst, though there was already
one in this April, which was relatively densely covered by the VSNET
Collaboration team.  However, the confirmation of the type of the present
outburst would be recommended.  Please concentrate on one of either stars
(CC Cnc or AK Cnc), make at least snapshot observations of the other.
If either of the quickly fades, concentrate on the superoutbursting
object.  (And take some snapshots of CI UMa, too).

Regards,
Taichi Kato
