1 Nov 1999 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | Nanjing U.), Zhousheng Zhang, Yulan Li (Yunnan Observatory | Abstract: | We report the photometry of a peculiar SU UMa-type dwarf nova - ER UMa for ten nights during 1998 December and 1999 March covering a complete rise to the supermaximum and a normal outburst cycle. Superhumps have been found during the rise to the superoutburst. A negative superhump appeared in Dec.22 light curve, while the superhump on the next night became positive and had large amplitude and distinct waveform from that of the previous night. In the normal outburst we captured, superhumps with larger or smaller amplitudes seem to always exist, although it is not necessarily true for every normal outburst. These results show great resemblance with V1159 Ori (Patterson et al. 1995). It is more likely that superhumps occasionally exist at essentially all phases of the eruption cycles of ER UMa stars, which should be considered in modeling. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9910558 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
