Congratulations to Rod Stubbings on announcing us such important outburst
(cf. vsnet-alert 908), and to Paul Warhurst (vsnet-alert 912) and Arkadiusz
Olech (vsnet 1034) for successfully detecting superhumps!
Exciting enough is the quoted value of fractional superhump excess (2.7%,
Olech), which is quite larger than those of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae, similar
short-orbital systems. Would it mean V485 Cen is not along the shorter-period
extension of usual SU UMa-type dwarf novae, i.e. the secondary is more
massive and denser?
Regards,
Taichi Kato
