TmzV85 light curve and campaign update

Dear Colleagues,

   We have updated the combined light curve of TmzV85 on the VSNET page.

   http://vsnet.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/vsnet/DNe/tmzv85.html

   New data are from long runs by Tonny Vanmunster, Rudolf Novak, Lasse Teist
Jensen, Marko Moilanen and Timo Kinnunen, and the Kyoto team.  Now 5285
observations are used to draw these figures.  The light curves clearly show
the decrease of superhump amplitudes.  Many recent eclipses have been very
successfully covered by these observations, enabling detailed analyses of
the evolution of the accretion disk.  As notifiyed by Tonny Vanmunster,
the system has likely entered (not displayed on the light curve yet)
the precipitous decline stage.  Intensive observations are strongly
urged to complete this fascinating job!

Regards,
on behalf of
Makoto Uemura, Taichi Kato, Katsura Matsumoto, Rudolf Novak, Tonny Vanmunster,
Lasse Teist Jensen, Denis Buczynski, Marko Moilanen, Timo Kinnunen
