ASAS-SN CV Patrol

Post by Paolo Berardi »

A webpage dedicated to cataclysmic variables, by ASAS-SN, to know what are in active state:

The automated survey monitors CV targets (down to about V 17 mag) and compares current magnitudes with previous data. Any increase of brightness found, triggers the inclusion in the list. Also new CV candidates are included.
