EM Cyg into outburst

Dear observers,

Thank you for your interest in this campaign.

It seems that EM Cyg is now into outburst, and we will need a nice coverage of the system until it goes back to quiescence.

Clear skies,

Dr. Ruiz-Carmona communicated on December 2 that they need to observe EM Cyg after another outburst to obtain further data. Please continue to monitor EM Cyg as instructed in Alert Notice 685 until further notice.

Many thanks, and Good observing,

EM Cyg campaign concluded

Dear Observers,

Dr. Ruiz-Carmona has informed me that the observing campaign on EM Cyg (Alert Notice 685) is concluded. He writes: "Unfortunately, we did not detect the radio flare, but it was still useful as proof of concept for a large collaboration. Thanks a lot for [the good monitoring and observations]!"

Thank you, everyone, for your contributions to this campaign. Your careful observing and dedication are greatly appreciated!

Best wishes for happy holidays, and Good observing,

Elizabeth
