Abstract (from CDS):

We discovered the outburst of 2MASS J06422218–0226285. Between end 2012 and early 2014, this object brightened by 3 mag in r and i, and by 3.7 mag in J. Since then, it has stayed at high brightness of about 16 mag in r and 15 mag in i. Possible explanations for this kind of light curve might be a Catalysmic Variable, a Symbiotic Binary or a FUor or EXor type Young Stellar Object. The color properties favor an outbursting Young Stellar Object.
