Newly arising problems in the research of SU UMa-type dwarf novae from VSNET collaborations

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Our research on variable objects based on the VSNET collaborations has achieved much progress in understanding the nature of many kinds of phenomena. Many problems have appeared, instead. Among them, we here review three newly arising problems in the research of SU UMa-type dwarf novae: 1) how do EI Psc and V485 Cen evolve as a cataclysmic variable?, 2) is the early superhump a particular phenomenon for WZ Sge-type dwarf novae?, and 3) what parameters determine variations of the superhump period?
