VSNET Weekly Campaign Summary
*** Last week news ***
(new targets)
RX And (RA = 01h04m35s.55, Dec = +41d17'58".0)
A possible beginning of a standstill was suspected
(vsnet-campaign-dn 2644), but P. Schmeer reported 13.9mag
on July 19 which indicates the object is not in a standstill
(vsnet-campaign-dn 2653, 2654).
V630 Cyg (RA = 21h34m59s.21, Dec = +40d40'18".5)
An outburst (14.9mag) was detected by M. Simonsen on July 13.
The outburst was confirmed on July 14 and 15 without rapid
fading. It may be a superoutburst (vsnet-campaign-dn 2647).
TU Crt (RA = 11h03m36s.50, Dec = -21d37'45".6)
As reported by R. Stubbings on July 18, the SU UMa-type dwarf
nova TU Crt experienced an outburst (12.6mag). The last reported
superoutburst was in 2001 April (vsnet-campaign-dn 2651).
ES Aql (RA = 19h32m21s.58, Dec = -00d11'31".2)
Reported observations show the object entered 12th mag, which
may indicate a slow fading of the object (vsnet-campaign-rcb 49).
(continuous targets)
V1141 Aql (RA = 19h37m10s.01, Dec = +02d35'59".2)
The object is fading from superoutburst (vsnet-campaign-dn 2645).
V1504 Cyg (RA = 19h28m55.87s, Dec = +43d05'39".9)
The object was reported to be bright at about 15mag during July
13-16, which may indicate a superoutburst (vsnet-campaign-dn 2643).
V348 Sgr (RA = 18h40m19s.94, Dec = -22d54'29".1)
The bright state at about 13.2mag still continues
(vsnet-campaign-rcb 48).
omicron Cet (RA = 02h19m20s.67, Dec = -02d58'27".1)
A further brightening to 3.4mag was reported
(vsnet-campaign-mira 27).
MV Lyr (RA = 19h07m15s.93, Dec = +44d01'10".7)
The object is still faint (vsnet-campaign-nl 93).
PU Vul (RA = 20h21m13s.30, Dec = +21d34'18".0)
The faint state at about 12mag continues (vsnet-campaign-symbio 22).
V1008 Her (RA = 18h05m46s.31, Dec = +31d40'18".1)
The fading from outburst was observed (vsnet-campaign-dn 2649).
V503 Cyg (RA = 20h27m15s.61, Dec = +43d41'45".5)
A new outburst to 14.3mag was detected on July 19.
The recurrence time of recent outbursts is unusually short
(vsnet-campaign-dn 2655, 2656).
V4641 Sgr (RA = 18h19m21s.6, Dec = -25d24'25")
While moderate variations seem to be present, no short
"flash"-like flare was observed until July 18 when M. Linnolt
reported a small flare to 12.7mag (vsnet-campaign-v4641sgr 146,
148, 149, 150, 151, 152). The light curves on July 16 obtained
by S. Kiyota and K. Torii also show a number of sudden
brightenings by ~0.5 mag, which look like real as compared with
error statistics (vsnet-campaign-v4641sgr 153, 154). No
short-term variation has been reported after those observations
(vsnet-campaign-v4641sgr 155, 156).
DY Per (RA = 02h35m17s.12, Dec = +56d08'44".7)
The faint state at about 13.8-13.9mag continues
(vsnet-campaign-rcb 47).
V803 Cen (RA = 13h23m44.5s, Dec = -41d44'30".1)
The object is still in a faint state (vsnet-campaign-dn 2652).
BL Lac (RA = 22h02m42s.86, Dec = +42d16'37".6)
The short-term activity has been reported (vsnet-campaign-blazar 268).
V2540 Oph (RA = 17h37m34s.36, Dec = -16d23'18".4)
The smooth fading continues (vsnet-campaign-nova 942).
V Sge (RA = 20h20m14s.75, Dec = +21d06'09".0)
The fading continues (vsnet-campaign-nl 92).
IX Dra (RA = 18h12m32s.2, Dec = +67d04'41")
The object was reported to be in outburst during July 12
(14.9mag) - 14 (15.5mag), which may indicate a superoutburst
(vsnet-campaign-dn 2646).
NSV 10934 (RA = 18h40m52s.26, Dec = -83d43'10".24)
An outburst (12.7mag) was reported by R. Stubbings on July 18
(vsnet-campaign-dn 2650).
AM Her (RA = 18h16m13s.4, Dec = +49d52'03".1)
The object is still faint at about 15mag (vsnet-campaign-polar 7).
*** Future schedule ***
Observations of AM Her with HST
B. Gaensicke reported that they have Hubble Space Telescope
observations of the magnetic cataclysmic variable AM Herculis
scheduled for July 11/12. Close monitoring of the activity of
the star throughout the next 3 weeks would be very helpful for
the interpretation of the HST data.
