[vsnet-alert 28205] DDE 196 (IPHAS J043920.40+500536.6): detection of early superhumps.

16 Aug 2026

      Dear Colleagues,

I performed time-resolved photometry for DDE 196 = IPHAS J043920.40+500536.6, 
recently spotted in outburst (vsnet-alert 28201). I collected two runs, on 15 
and 16 Aug. and their analysis reveals early superhumps.

The target is right now at mag. 13.0 (unfiltered, R-mags for the reference stars 
from GAIA DR2).

Data will be send to Kyoto for further analysis.

Further observations are strongly encouraged.

All the best

Gianluca Masi
