Comparing the present outburst with photometric summaries of previous
ones, one indeed gets the impression that the current outburst must be
a superoutburst (hence establishing DM Lyr as a member of the UGSU
dwarf novae). I have started a time series CCD photometry on DM Lyr
last night (for about 3 hours), to find out if any superhumps are
detectable. I haven't reduced the CCD images yet, but let you know
my findings. Has anyone else attempted CCD photometry on this object ?
Or does anyone know about published photometric results ?
