OT J012059.59+325545.0: rapid fading!
We have just received a report from Enrique de Miguel.
The object remained bright last night (observations in Japan).
More analysis will follow later.
Comments: Clean skies.
8 days have passed since last run. Object is 0.76 mag
fainter. It seems that it has entered the rapid decline
stage: on average, it has faded 0.133 mag during
tonight's run, which implies a fading rate of
~0.58 mag/d.
The amplitude of the superhumps are seen to be of
slightly smaller amplitude (~0.10-0.12).
There is a clear increase in Psh, with
Psh = 0.05783(3).
