KS UMa: superhump evolution Dear Colleagues, We have received new data sets from Tomas Hynek and Brian Martin. Kyoto team (Uemura-san and Ishioka-san) also successfully obtained new data. The most recent data indicate that the regular superhump profile persists, without a phase jump. The reported drastic change (cf. vsnet-alert 7652) may have been a transient one; the early phase reversal of superhumps have been confined to ER UMa stars as of now. The mean superhump period of KS UMa is 0.07015 d up to now. Regards, Taichi Kato
