AAVSO Special Notice #343
GK Per outburst appears to be underway
March 18, 2013
The old nova GK Per (N Per 1901), which has dwarf nova outbursts, appears to be going into outburst, according to observations submitted to the AAVSO International Database:
2013 March 11.03 UT, 13.0 (John Bortle, Stormville, NY); 12.87, 12.8 (Bill Wilson, Grange over Sands, Cumbria, England); 14.83, 12.7 (Gary Poyner, Birmingham, England);
15.02429 UT, 12.6 (Miroslav Komorous, WHERE); 15.09443, 12.7 (Larry Shotter, Uniontown, PA); 15.86110, 12.4 (Luigi Palazzi, Genova, Italy); 16.31042, 12.25 (Michael Linnolt, Ocean View, HI); 16.81000, 12.5 (Robert Fidrich, Bakonycsernye, Hungary); 17.03957, 12.2 (Carey Chiselbrook, Marietta, GA); 17.04860, 12.35 V +/-0.01 (Shawn Dvorak, Clermont, FL); 17.82199, 12.3 (Poyner); 17.85575, 12.200 CV +/-0.081 (Graham Darlington, Pulbourough, England); 17.85813, 12.189 CV +/-0.079 (Darlington); 17.86128, 12.251 CV +/-0.075 (Darlington); 17.86367, 12.195 CV +/-0.072 (Darlington); 18.02850, 12.45 (Komorous); 18.80300, 12.32 V +/-0.03 (Steven O'Connor, St. George's, Bermuda).
GK Per has dwarf nova outbursts about every 18-24 months, although the interval can vary quite a bit. It is difficult to predict how bright this outburst may be; the brightness and duration of recent GK Per outbursts has varied substantially.
Its last outburst was 3 years ago, in March 2010, when it reached
V=9.7 and was brighter than V=12.8 for at least 100 days (the exact number of days is unknown because GK Per returned to minimum during its seasonal gap), according to the AAVSO International Database. The brightness of that outburst may be related to the long interval to the current outburst. Coverage of GK Per has been sufficiently continuous to deduce that no outburst has been missed since 2010.
The September 2008 outburst reached V=12.1 and was brighter than
12.8 for about 30 days.
The December 2006 outburst was anomalous, never reaching brighter than V=11.3 and varying during maximum between 12.4 and 11.3, and returning to minimum after 90 days.
Please monitor GK Per and report your observations to the AAVSO, using the name GK PER.
Coordinates: R.A. 03 31 12.01 Dec. +43 54 15.4 (2000.0)
