V803 Cen: superhump period in faint state

  Berto Monard and Josch Hambsch have reported new observations.
V803 Cen is gradually fading and the present magnitude is ~16.5V.
During the faint state (after the standstill-like state),
this object showed superhumps with the period of 0.0186331(70) d.
The superhump period has obviously changed from
the standstill-like state (0.018705(20)). In addition, this period is shorter than
the ordinary superhump (0.0187 d) and longer than the orbital period (0.01848 d).
