Superhumps in V592 Her finally
Gordon Garradd's September 2 data (vsnet-obs 14625, available
at http://vsnet.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/vsnet/Mail/obs14000/msg00625.html)
finally seems to have revealed awaited superhumps! Both V592-comp3 and
V592-comp4 show signals: peaks around 2.39-2.395 UT and 2.455 UT (the last
part of the observation was probably hindered by the low altitude).
The amplitude was around 0.3 mag, showing characteristic rapid rise and
slow fade to common superhumps. Follow-up observations are most urgently
required in order to confirm the existence, and refine the period.
Regards,
Taichi Kato and Gordon Garradd
