[vsnet-alert 7655] EU CMa: possible superhumps



EU CMa: possible superhumps

Dear Colleagues,

   We have partly analyzed the Kyoto data of EU CMa.  Although the analysis
is very preliminary, there seems to be a suggestion of 0.3-mag variations,
which can be attributed to superhumps.  If these variations are indeed
superhumps, the period looks like to be short (around 0.06 d?), the exact
identification pending further analysis and observation.  The images have
been relayed to Yamaoka-san for accurate astrometry and quiescent
identification.  Depending on the outburst amplitude, the object even
may be a WZ Sge-type candidate.

   The object looks like to be a promising target.  We encourage further
detailed time-series photometry!

Regards,
Taichi Kato
