Survey of Period Variations of Superhumps in SU UMa-Type Dwarf Novae

Abstract We systematically surveyed period variations of superhumps in SU UMa-type dwarf novae based on newly obtained data and past publications. In many systems, the evolution of the superhump period is found to be composed of three distinct stages: an early evolutionary stage with a longer superhump period, a middle …
