[vsnet-campaign 111] XTE J1118+480: Humps

[Makoto Uemura <uemura@kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp>]

Dear Colleagues,

   We performed period analysis on the data from 13 to 21 May obtained 
by VSNET XTE J1118+480 collaboration members (sample number = 2096).
   The result shows a slightly longer period of 0.1713 (0.0002) d than 
that previously reported (IAUC 7418). 
   The current amplitude of the humps is about 0.05mag, indicating that 
it becomes smaller.  This coincides with less clear profile of humps 
seen in recent light curves.  In the averaged light curve, the hump 
has a rather flat peak which did not appeared in early May data.

Regards,
Makoto Uemura
