MASTER OT J193829.83-792552.2 discovery - new Dwarf Nova, Amplitude >5m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system Lipunov et al., Advances in Astronomy, MASTER Global Robotic Net, 2010 discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 19h 38m 29.83s -79d 25m 52.2s on 2015-05-04.05270 UT.

The OT unfiltered magnitude is 16.7m (the limit is 18.6m).

There are 3 images with OT. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2015-04-13.00343 UT with 19.6 unfiltered magnitude limit.

There is no any source in VIZIER database, so the amplitude is more than 5.3m.

The discovery and reference images are available at: http://master.sai.msu.ru/static/OT/193829.83-792552.2.png

Spectral observations are required.

MASTER OT J205925.16-235936.6 discovery - new Dwarf Nova, Amplitude >4m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 20h 59m 25.16s -23d 59m 36.6s on 2015-05-01.01333 UT.

The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.8m (the limit is 18.8m).

There are 3 images with OT. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2015-03-22.13247 UT with 19.3 unfiltered magnitude limit.

There is no any source in VIZIER database, so the amplitude is more than 4.2m.

Spectral observations are required.
