New DN in Cam (OT_J055718+683226): still bright
This new ultra-short period dwarf nova is still bright tonight.
We have got a 4-hour light curve under clear condition tonight.
Our last night observation detected 4 humps and a period analysis
yielded a superhump period of 0.0530(3) d.
We have updated our web page for this object.
http://home.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/hasc/kanata/j0557/index.html
Superhumps have similar amplitudes and profiles both in V and J
bands, except for a possible hint of the secondary maximum only
in J band light curve (see the above page).
Time-series observations are encouraged.
