Outburst of the WZ Sge star V627 Peg

Post by David Boyd »

The WZ Sge star V627 Peg has been reported in outburst by Maeda Yutaka (Japan) confirmed in observations by the ASAS-SN Sky Patrol and ZTF.

Christian Knigge (Southampton U) is putting together a multi-wavelength campaign to study the outburst. Amateur data will be welcome.

Last night (15th July) I observed the star at V magnitude 10.48 and rising. The following spectrum was recorded with a LISA spectroscope on a C11 scope.
