[vsnet-outburst 23083] Re: ASASSN-18aan: stage A-B transition?

[Yasuyuki WAKAMATSU]

Kyoto U. team, Tonny Vanmunster, Osaka Kyoiku U. team and
Mizutani-san reported further observations.

The stage A-B transition seems to have occurred on December 8. The
object shows stage B superhumps now. After the object reached the
brightest state on December 9, it gradually continues to fade. By
analogy with ASASSN-18yi, the object is thought to enter the fading
period in several days or a week.
