[vsnet-obs 3632] Superhumps in HO Del



Dear colleagues,

We obtained 5.3 hours CCD photometry of HO Del between Sept 2.85 UT and
Sept 3.07 UT, at the CBA Belgium (unfiltered 140s exposures using a 
25-cm f/6.3 SCT with an SBIG ST-7 CCD). The light curve clearly shows the
existence of superhumps in this system with a mean amplitude of approx.
0.09 mag. A preliminary analysis of the superhump period yields a best value 
of 0.064d (PDM method).

At the moment of this writing, the telescope is performing another CCD 
photometry run on HO Del (Sept 3/4).

Best regards,
Tonny Vanmunster
CBA Belgium
