Dear colleagues,
The possible outburst/brightening of V1363 Cyg, reported by Gary Poyner,
has been confirmed by CCD at the CBA Belgium (25-cm f/6.3 SCT and ST-7 CCD).
The CCD images were obtained under very poor conditions (strong winds,
clouds), but clearly show the presence of a faint object. A rough analysis
of an unfiltered CCD image, obtained at 23h19m UT (Sep 12, 1996) yields a
magnitude of 16.5 (using the 15.60 comp. star on the TA sequence).
V1363 Cyg is not visible on earlier CCD images, obtained at the CBA Belgium,
although they have a similar limiting magnitude. This further proves the
reality of the object.
The Outburst Activity Database on Selected Cataclysmic Variables contains no
entries on past outbursts of this object.
Kind regards,
Tonny Vanmunster,
CBA Belgium
