MASTER OT J092341.40-215809.5 discovery - new Dwarf Nova (no known VIZIER source)
MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., Advances in Astronomy, MASTER Global Robotic Net, 2010 ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 09h 23m 41.40s -21d 58m 09.5s on 2015-04-07.93587 UT. The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.2m (the limit is 19.0m).
The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place, no any source at VIZIER database inside 25". It means, the amplitude is 4-5m.
We have reference images without OT on 2014-12-23.96696 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 20.0m, on 2015-02-16.0954UT with m_lim=19.8 .

Spectral observations are required.
MASTER OT J075927.68-860929.5 discovery - Dwarf Nova flare
MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 07h 59m 27.68s -86d 09m 29.5s on 2015-04-02.88172 UT. The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.1m (limit 18.3m). The OT is seen in 5 images.
The OT is seen on 2015-04-05.775 with unfiltered m_OT=16.8, and on 2015-04-06.852 with unfiltered m_OT=17.0
We have reference image without OT on 2015-01-05.98906 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 18.9m.
This OT can be identified with the 0038-0016820 USNO-B1 star with B2=20.11 R2=19.09.
