SX LMi: gradual fading stopped Since January 28, the object has remained almost constant brightness and the normal gradual fading was stopped. It may be the beat phenomenon or a sign of the final phase of this superhump plateau. Follow-up monitoring is encouraged. Our period analysis including the data until January 29 yields the period of 0.069381(32) d, shorter than those ever reported on this object. The superhump period seems to rapidly decrease. Superhumps are still clearly seen in the light curve on January 29 with the amplitude of 0.2mag. Regards, Makoto Uemura
