[vsnet-alert 6396] WZ Sge results of August 21/22 run at CBA Belgium

[tonny.vanmunster@wanadoo.be]

Dear colleagues,

I have just uploaded the August 21/22 light curve of WZ 
Sge, that I obtained at CBA Belgium Observatory, to my 
web site (see address below).

It was not a particularly favourable photometric night, 
hampered also by low clouds. I nevertheless managed to 
collect a dense time-series, over a period of about 6 
hours. The resulting light curve clearly shows a number 
of interesting features. First, the rebrightening of WZ 
Sge, which was still very obvious in the hours 
preceding our observations, seems to have come to an 
end. The superhumps are much smaller than in any of our 
previous observing nights, having an amplitude 
of \'barely\' 0.06 mag. In between superhumps, there are 
a number of dips. The most pronounced dip (the one 
immediately preceding the superhump peaks) likely is to 
be attributed to eclipses.

Best regards,
Tonny Vanmunster
