WZ Sge: Sep. 4-5 time-seires analysis, eclipse and humps appeared again!

Dear Colleagues,

   As reoorted by Uemura-san, at the (8-th) rebrightening maximum, there
seemed to be no "true eclipses" at the predicted phase.  The profile is
very complex, and there was an eclipse-like fading 0.1 phase preceding
the predicted times.  The maxima of humps appear at phase 0.4 and 0.6
(double peaks).  There is also a dip-like feature at phase 0.1-0.2,
making the overall appearance as "triple humps".

   Later on the fading of the rebrightening, eclipses at predicted phases
appeared again!  There is also growing hump signal preceding eclipses
(the feature commonly seen in the past rebrightenings).

   A representative light curve is presented on the VSNET WZ Sge page.
