Van Cauteren, de Borrekenslaan 54, 2630 Aartselaar, BELGIUM Internet: pvancaut@innet.be TEL. 32-3-8774098 =================================================================== TW Tri [UGZ, 13.3p - 17.0p] =========================== This poorly studied object is undergoing an outburst, as indicated by the observations below. Although the subclass (Z Cam) of this dwarf nova seems secure, we could trace no further information in the Simbad database, operated at CDS, Strasbourg, France. Also the "Outburst Activity Database on Selected Cataclysmic Variables" lists no additional observations. The coordinates of TW Tri, given in Downes and Shara (1993) are : R.A. = 01h36m37.06, Decl. = +32d00'39.0" (J2000.0). A GSC-based search chart, drawn by Paul Van Cauteren, Aartselaar, Belgium, on the basis of the above mentioned coordinates, shows the object on a position which is slightly different from the position indicated on the finding chart at page 233 of Downes and Shara (1993). We therefor recommend astrome- tric follow-up observations to obtain an accurate position of this object. 1995 Jul 23.010 UT, [14.2 (T. Vanmunster, 0.35-m refl., seq: GSC); Aug 03.087 UT, 14.3 (T.
