MASTER OT J012608.84-234636.5 discovery - possible dwarf nova outburst, Ampl>2m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., Advances in Astronomy, MASTER Global Robotic Net, 2010 ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 01h 26m 08.84s -23d 46m 36.5s on 2015-07-26.06086 UT.

The OT unfiltered magnitude is 19.2m (the limit is 20.8m).There are 8 images with OT in MASTER-SAAO database. There is no minor planet at this place.

We have reference image without OT on 2015-01-11.82681 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 20.2m. There is USNO B1 star with B1=19.84,B2=21.23, R1=20.27,R2=23.24. This OT is a GALEX source with FUV=21.134. So we can suggest dwarf nova outburst with amplitude more then 2m.

Spectral observations are required.

MASTER OT J001400.25-561735.0 - bright dwarf outburst with amplitude more then 3.7m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 00h 14m 00.25s -56d 17m 35.0s on 2015-07-25.85398 UT.

The OT unfiltered magnitude is 15.3m (the limit is 18.8m). There are 7 images with this bright OT. There is no minor planet at this place.

We have reference images with quiet OT on 2014-12-28.883UT with unfiltered (0.2B+0.8R USNO-B1) m_OT=18.4, on on 2015-01-11.842UT with m_OT=18.8, 2015-02-17.775UT with m_OT=19.0, on 2015-04-15.1344UT with m_OT=18.5, on 2015-06-09.11640 UT with m_OT=18.9m. There was a previous possible burst with V=16.3 in CRTS archive. There is a star with B=18.9 and R=18.45(GSC 2.2).
So we can suggest the dwarf nova outburst with amplitude more then 3.7m .
Spectral observations are required.
