Re: WZ Sge: superhump period on Aug. 6

Dear Colleagues,

   The combined PDM analysis of Aug. 5-6 data (D. Starkey, Kyoto, G. Masi
and F. Mallia, J. Pietz) has given an average period of 0.057796 +/- 0.000023
d, which siginificantly differs from the periods determined from Aug. 5 and
Aug. 6 data only.  The theta profile also suggests that the period is
indeed changing.  The superhump period has thus changed within a day
(or even within 0.5 d).  Please keep the closest watch of the evolution
of superhumps!
