RX Cha
As reported by R. Stubbings on April 1, the SU UMa-type dwarf nova RX Cha
experienced a bright outburst (14.4mag). The last likely superoutburst
occurred in 2001 March (vsnet-campaign-dn
2225). The object once faded slightly, and then remained at about 15.1mag
on April 4, which was reminiscent of a plateau phase of a superoutburst (vsnet-campaign-dn
2253, 2263,
2277).
Another outburst (14.5mag) was reported by R. Stubbings on December 1 (vsnet-campaign-dn
3065). Observations reported by T. Richards on December 3 indicated a
rapid decline. The outburst was a normal outburst (vsnet-campaign-dn
3071, 3076).
