OU Vir: stopped fading! Dear Colleagues, Tom Krajci just sent a new data set on May 19. To our surprise, the object stopped fading probably well above the quiescence! The object still seems to be well suitable for time-series observations, in contrast to our expectation. The light curve (outside the eclipses) is dominated with a rather long-period undulations (dominant period 4 hr likely with shorter period components), which may be associated with late superhumps. Alternately, the slow modulation may also look like a long-term brightening trend. It may be even possible that the object is on its way to a rebrightening. Please observe this object as long as it is visible! Regards, Taichi Kato VSNET Collaboration team
