EG Cnc [NL/UG:, 11.9v - 17:v]
=============================
We have been informed by Patrick Schmeer, Germany about an outburst
of EG Cnc. This most interesting object, called Huruhata's Variable,
has been seen only once before (in November 1977). A confirmative
visual observation has been made by Tonny Vanmunster, Belgium.
Here are some details :
1996 Nov. 30.917 UT, 12.5 (P. Schmeer, 0.20-m SCT, Seq: GSC);
Nov. 30.951 UT, 12.0 (P. Schmeer);
Nov. 30.989 UT, 11.8 (P. Schmeer);
Dec. 01.021 UT, 12.1 (T. Vanmunster, 0.35-m refl., seq: GSC);
Given the long recurrence time of this object, it is most likely
that this a UGWZ-type dwarf nova. Therefor, follow-up observations
at each stage of the light curve are of utmost importance. Time
series CCD photometry is highly encouraged.
