[vsnet-alert 9724] Fw: [cvnet-outburst] Re: OT_J080714.2+113812: new dwarf nova in Cnc - SUPERHUMPING!

[Daisaku NOGAMI]

Dear colleagues,

Tom Krajci reported his detection of superhumps in the variable star
discovered by Itagaki, OT_J080714.2+113812.  The suerhump period (0.062 d)
estimated by Tom may be slightly long for a WZ Sge star?  Follow-up
observations are highly encouraged!

Best regards,

Three hours of unfiltered CCD time-series data show that this star is
superhumping at approx mag 15, amplitude of 0.1 mag, and a rough period (by
casual visual inspection of the data) of 0.062 days.
