MASTER OT J133257.09-314351.0 discovery - new OT (dwarf nova?) with ampl>4.3m
MASTER-OAFA auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., "MASTER Global Robotic Net", Advances in Astronomy, 2010, 30L )
discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 13h 32m 57.09s -31d 43m 51.0s on 2017-06-20.11831 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.7m (mlim=19.6m).
The OT is seen in 3 images(2017-06-20 02:15:33, 02:38:46, 02:50:22UT). There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2017-05-01.16240 UT with 19.7 unfiltered magnitude limit
There is no any sources inside 5" in VIZIER database, it means 22m POSS limit in history and more then 4.3m of current outburst amplitude
Spectral observations are required.
