Dear colleagues,

I carried out time-series photometry of the possible dwarf nova
 ASAS102522-1542.4 on Jan. 27 (27.727 - 27.853UT).

Small amplitude (about 0.05 mag) humps were detected.
The period of hump is about 0.03 (or 0.06) days.
These humps seem to be early superhumps suggesting that
ASAS102522-1542.4 is a new WZ Sge-type dwarf nova.
Light curve can be seen at

Follow-up time-series observations are strongly encouraged.

Regards,
Hiroyuki Maehara
