ZTF20acyxwzf = ASASSN-21au: rapid fading with superhump-like variations

     Itoh-san, Kubotera-san, Tonny Vanmunster, Kyoto U. team, Tamas Tordai, Moriyama-san and Maehara-san have reported further observations.
According to observations by Itoh-san, Kubotera-san and Kyoto U. team, this object shows rapid fading with superhump-like variations on Feb. 21.
The superhump-like variations period is 0.0405 d. According to my O-C analysis, the superhump-like variations period seems almost constant, but the phase average profile seems to be changing.

This object is showing very interesting behavior.

Time-resolved photometry is encouraged.
Even if this object is faint, nightly snapshots are important. Because this object is likely to cause rebrightenings.
