EX Lup outburst coverage requested

Active Dates: March 19, 2022 – None


Abstract:

A long-term campaign on the Young Stellar Object EX Lup, which is going into outburst. Photometry and spectroscopy are requested to observe the color evolution around the outburst.

Justification:

These outbursts might be due to the same disk instability responsible for dwarf nova eruptions, which has never been properly tested by observing color evolution throughout the outburst.
