WZ Sge: almost stopped fading! Dear Colleagues, We have received a new set of very high quality data from J. Pietz. The data show prominent humps, as reported from Moilanen's data. We have confirmed the structure of the hump feature, and the presence of fadings at the predicted times of eclipses. The following very preliminary (still on a limited sample of the data) nightly averaged magnitudes indicate that WZ Sge has almost completely stopped fading. mid-UT V-C err N -------------------------------- 20010817.532 2.941 0.215 1451 20010818.874 3.827 0.140 770 20010819.021 3.825 0.134 183 More detailed analysis is ongoing, and will be presented by Uemura-san.
