Subject: [vsnet-obs 0] Full-grown superhumps in BC UMa

Dear colleagues,

Finally a clear night again at CBA Belgium Observatory. We obtained a =
8.5 hrs unfiltered CCD photometry run on BC UMa, using the 0.35-m f/6.3 =
robotic telescope. The corresponding light curve shows very prominent =
superhumps, with an average amplitude of 0.33 mag. A first period =
analysis using the PDM method reveals a superhump period of 0.0642 d, =
which is above earlier published superhump period values.

Best regards,
Tonny Vanmunster
