[vsnet-outburst 10942] EL UMa potential superhump period

[Taichi Kato]

EL UMa potential superhump period

   Based on observations by Maehara-san and Josch Hambsch, a candidate
superhump period of 0.06045(6) d has been detected.  The mean amplitude
of variations folded by this period is 0.06 mag.  Although this period
needs to be confirmed by further observations, it appears to be
similar to that of VX For (see e.g. vsnet-alert 11492, Psh = 0.06130 d)
that underwent multiple rebrightenings.  (see Kato et al. 2010
http://pasj.asj.or.jp/v61/sp2/61s201/61s201a.html
for phenomenology of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae with multiple rebrightenings
and the association with Psh and Pdot).
