dc.descriptionWe photometrically observed the 2003 June superoutburst of GO Gom. The mean superhump period was 0.063059(13) d. The resultant data revealed that (1) the obtained light curve contained a precursor, (2) a plateau stage of the object lasted 8 days, which is remarkably shorter than that of ordinary SU UMa-type dwarf novae, and (3) the amplitude of the superoutburst was less than 5 mag, which is unpredictably small when taking into account the fact that the supercycle of GO Com is about 2800 days. In order to explain these anomalies, a mass elimination process from the accretion disk, such as evaporation, may play an important role.
