SW UMa: post-superoutburst behavior Dear Colleagues, We have analyzed Torii-san's Nov. 12 and 13 observations and Kyoto data. The object reached a post-superoutburst state (still brighter than the true quiescence) and very gradually fading. On November 12, short-period variations became less prominent. On November 13, the variation became stronger again (0.1-0.4 mag), some of which look like late superhumps. In case SW UMa undergoes a post-superoutburst rebrightening (as in other short-period SU UMa stars), we can expect such a phenomenon within a few days. Close monitoring and intensive coverage is still needed. Regards, Taichi Kato VSNET Collaboration team
