Dear Colleagues,
last night, I did 2.5 hours of time resolved photometry on this star,
remotely using the 14" unit part of the Virtual Telescope Project.
The star was clearly showing superhumps, so - as I mentioned earlier -
this is a new SU UMa star.
Superhumps have a full amplitude of 0.1 mags.
A search for Psh, using all the available data, provided a candidate of
1.48 hours.
Data will be sent to Kyoto for analysis.
Regards,
Gianluca Masi
