V1159 Ori superoutburst in late September

   Osaka Kyoiku U. team (Hisami Furukawa, Hirochika Nishino, Ryo Noguchi,
Hiroshi Kobayashi, Takehiro Ishibashi, Katsura Matsumoto, Rikako Ono)
reported observations in late September.  These observations indicate
that the object underwent a superoutburst in late September.
Combined with observations by Maehara-san, the observations were not
inconsistent with positive superhumps with a period of 0.06427(1) d.
We have also received observations of the subsequent stage 
from Irina Voloshina, William Stein, Okayama U. of Sci. team.
Although the analysis is still preliminary, the object didn't
appear to show strong negative superhumps as in ER UMa.
Further observations are encouraged.
