OT_J071126.0+440405: intermediate state
As reported earlier the eclipsing polar OT_J071126.0+440405 started
fading. Arto Oksanen, Maehara-san and Kyoto team (observer: Ohshima-san)
have reported time-resolved photometry when the system was by 1.5-2 mag
below the earlier level.
The eclipses were still sharply seen, with a flatter bottom than in
earlier observations. The hump became broader in phase. There was
little evidence for the phase -0.13 dip, suggesting that the accretion
stream has markedly reduced.
Further observations are encouraged!
