Scientific paper

Differential CCD photometry of the 1996 April superoutburst of SW UMa was performed both at the Nicholas Copernicus Observatory and at the Ouda Station, Kyoto University. Although superhumps with a period of 0.05818 (+/- 0.00002) d and possible small-amplitude quasi periodic oscillations (QPOs) were detected, we failed to find the so-called super-QPOs. SW UMa has been proved to be the fourth SU UMa-type dwarf nova, following AL Com, V1028 Cyg, and HV Vir, in which an analysis of the superhump maxima timings revealed an increase in the superhump period.
