HT Cam : Short outburst
On July 13, M. Reszelski reported a rare outburst of HT Cam at
13.3mag. The object is a system with a short orbital period (below the
period gap). Some authors consider the object as a candidate of a
intermediate polar. The last reported outburst occurred in 2000
September detected by T. Kinnunen
(vsnet-campaign 996).
The outburst was quickly faded as shown by observations on July 14
(vsnet-campaign-dn 986,
vsnet-campaign-ip 56).
The duration of the outburst is again very short.
