ER UMa: negative-postive superhumps appear
We have received further obsevrations from Akazawa-san, Enrique de Miguel,
and Crimean Astrophy. Obs. (observers: Denis Samsonov). And we also took
observations of this object.
This object showed the combination of negative and superhumps on Apr 27.8.
Negative superhumps seem to appear and disappear every other days in the
early stage of this superoutburst. This might be related to the beat
cycle of neghative superhumps and positive superhumps (nearly 1 day).
Meanwhile the last observations immlies that negative superhumps have been
continuously seen for two days. It is unknown whether this shows the change
of superhumps phase or simply the positive superhumps appearred in the blank
of observations.
Further osbervations are encouraged!
