Alert Notice 369: Outburst of AQ CMi
January 31, 2008: Rod Stubbings (Tetoora Road, Victoria, Australia) reports via VSNET (vsnet-alert 9869) that the rarely outbursting UGSU star AQ CMi is in outburst. Stubbings reports that AQ CMi was at m(vis) = 14.6 on JD 2454496.978 (2008 Jan 31 11:28 UT). It is unclear whether the current outburst is a normal outburst or a superoutburst. The last confirmed normal outburst occurred on February 28, 2000, and the last confirmed superoutburst occurred in March 1997, nearly 11 years ago.
