[vsnet-obs 849] Re: CVC 49 (FX Cep)



    Concerning FX Cep, we can supply some additional information from the
discovery paper (Rosino 1962, Asiago. Contr. 132).  FX Cep = GR 95 was
observed in outburst rather frequently as extracted from this paper.

       list of outbursts

          JD        mag.
        2436818    15.2
            846    15.2
            865    15.4
            876     max
           7189    15.0  long outburst
            669    15.2

    Short recurrence time (shortest = 11 days) and existence of a long out-
burst might be a some hint of an SU UMa-type dwarf nova.  Photometric search
for superhumps during the current seemingly bright outburst would therefore
be recommended.  What a busy dwarf nova world! -- we will try to confirm
the outburst if conditions permit.
