[vsnet-alert 9643] Re: V455 And: late superhumps similar to GW Lib

[Boris.Gaensicke at warwick.ac.uk]

Dear All, 

with respect to the possible appearance of late superhumps in V455 And, I 
would like to remind that this object has very likely quiescent 
superhumps, with a period of 0.0579d (Araujo-Betancor et al. 2005, A&A 
430, 629; astro-ph/0410223). It will be very interesting to see how the 
superhump period in V455 And will develop during the late stage of the 
decline. 

The observational coverage has been fantastic, thanks a lot to all your 
efforts in following this extraordinary object.
