UW Tri: updated superhump period
The WZ Sge-type dwarf nova UW Tri is still in outburst.
The data by the Kyoto team (observer: Ohshima-san, Tanaka-san)
have confirmed the continued presence of ordinary superhumps.
Restricting to observations with well-defined superhumps
(after Nov. 11), the updated mean superhump period is 0.05423(3) d.
Using this superhump period and the period of early superhumps
in [vsnet-alert 10676], the fractional superhump excess is 1.7%.
Although the object is faint, further observations are encouraged.
The object is expected to undergo rebrightening(s) even after
the rapid decline.
