WZ Sge: growing superhumps (Moilanen data)
Dear Colleagues,
Marko Moilanen, Nyrola observatory, has sent very high-quality data
(22 sec net time resolution) between Aug. 18.844 and 19.033 UT. The data
show a strong hump signal with an amplitude of 0.35 mag! The period
analysis suggests this signal is the reappearance of superhumps. Small
dip-like eclipses are also present at the predicted times. More detailed
analysis, combined with earlier data, will be later presented by Uemura-san
et al.
We strongly encourage immediate observations, since the humps are
very rapidly evolving!
Regards,
Taichi Kato
