ASASSN-16er: ultrashort-period object?

   Josch Hambsch and Kyoto U. team have reported
observations.  The most recent data by Hambsch appear
to show short-period superhumps.  The best period
is 0.04974(5) d.  This value is uncertain due to
the limited data.  If the period is confirmed,
the object may belong to EI Psc-type objects
with a low mass-transfer rate.  Further observations
are strongly encouraged.
