Dear colleagues,
I have just finished analysing my unfiltered CCD observations of
ASASSN-24fq, obtained on 2024, Aug 30/Sep 01 and Sep 01/02 at CBA
Extremadura Observatory using a 0.40-m f/5.1 telescope and SX-46 CCD camera
under clear skies.
The resulting light curve clearly shows the presence of regular superhumps
with an amplitude of 0.56 mag, establishing ASASSN-24fq as a new SU UMa-type
dwarf nova. A period analysis, using the ANOVA, Lomb-Scargle,
Generalized-Lomb-Scargle, PDM and Phase-binned AoV methods (Peranso 3.0)
yields a combined superhump period of 0.0590 +/- 0.0002d. The object was at
mag CV = 15.8 on Aug 13th.
Image calibration and photometry were done using my new photometry software
Phoranso 1.0.4.8, which allowed me to simultaenously measure several other
variables present in the FOV of this new SU UMa-type dwarf nova.
I will send my observations to AAVSO, CBA and VSNET for further analysis.
Best regards
Tonny
