[vsnet-obs 1339] CCD observation of PV Per



  PV Per has faded quite rapidly as the following observations indicates.

  mid-UT     V-C   S.D.   N band    V-mag
---------------------------------   -----
951013.771  2.870 0.054   2 V        17.0
951014.631  4.756 0.000   1 V        18.9:

  comparison star: 02h42m54s.77 +38o04'08".5 (J2000.0)
                   GSC V=14.2 (14.15 in revised VSNET chart)

  The rate of decline also suggests that this dwarf nova is a ultrashort
orbital period system.  From this point of view, Sep. 15 outburst
detected by T. Vanmunster might be a superoutburst.

  Further close monitoring would be recommended.  One should again
remember that the present short outburst may trigger a superoutburst.
Please continue a close watch.
