Superhumps in SU UMa
Regarding the present peculiar outburst with apparent humps, three-night
basis CCD photometry at Ouda team rooftop station has yielded a period
around 0.0778-0.0788 d, clearly indicating the present modulation is
attributable to superhumps (Porb=0.07635 d). Superhumps on Dec. 30 reached
0.6 mag! The present outburst (either a extremely short superoutburst? or
a new class of outburst?) clearly needs to be intesively attended.
Regards,
Taichi Kato
