PNVJ06245297+0208207: ordinary superhumps (AM CVn, P=0.0352 d)
Itoh-san obtained long time-resolved photometry on
Jan. 25 and detected singly peaked superhumps.
These humps were also present in Tordai's observation
on Jan. 24 and Vanmunster's on Jan. 23-24 (doubly humped).
Thanks to all these observers, the rising phase of
the superoutburst was covered. The superhump period
is 0.035185(8) d (stage A+B?). The period is longer than
the oribital period of GP Com and the lack of hydrogen
lines has been confirmed. Very important finding and
object.
