KS UMa observation from Tonny Vanmunster and Nakajima-san Dear Colleagues, We have received KS UMa observations from Tonny Vanmunster (as Tonny already reported) and from Nakajima-san. The object was also successfully observed by the Kyoto team (two nights, including the initial day of the outburst) and by Torii-san (RIKEN). The resultant light curve by Tonny is what he already described. Nakajima-san's light curve lasy night, however, seems to show a weak (~0.05 mag) signal, which may be attributed to early-stage superhumps. The present outburst thus likely presents an excellent opprotunity to follow the development of superhumps in KS UMa. We may expect that the modulations may have become stronger in the Nyrola observations. Regards, Taichi Kato VSNET Collaboration team
