We present new high-resolution (R=40000) spectroscopic observations of 18 bright northern Cepheids carried out at David Dunlap Observatory, in 1997. The measurements mainly extend those of presented in Paper I adding three more stars (AW…

We present a long term optical $R$ band light curve analysis of the gravitationally lensed blazar AO 0235+164 in the time span 1982 - 2019. Several methods of analysis lead to the result that there is a periodicity of ~8.13 years present in…

The light curves of the first overtone Pop. I Cepheids (s-Cepheids) show a discontinuity in their phi_21 vs. P diagram, near P=3.2 day. This feature, commonly attributed to the 2:1 resonance between the first and the fourth overtones…

We have estimated JHKs magnitudes corrected to mean intensity for LMC type II Cepheids found in the OGLE-III survey. Period-luminosity relations (PLRs) are derived in JHKs as well as in a reddening-free VI parameter. The BL Her stars (P<4d)…

Extreme mass-ratio contact binaries with a high degree of overcontact may be in the late evolutionary stages of the contact phase. Detailed photometric analyses and orbital period studies of those systems can provide invaluable information…

V393 Scorpii is a bright Galactic Double Periodic Variable showing a long photometric cycle of approx. 253 days. We present new VIJK photometric time series for V393 Scorpii along with the analysis of ASAS V-band photometry. We disentangled…

We report the results of our continuous UBVRI-band photometry of Betelgeuse from 1999 to 2022 using the same photometric system. There are two advantages in our observation: (1) we used a photodiode as a detector to avoid saturation, and…

New multiband CCD photometry is presented for the eclipsing binary GW Gem; the $RI$ light curves are the first ever compiled. Four new minimum timings have been determined. Our analysis of eclipse timings observed during the past 79 years…

We present an analysis of photometric observations of the eclipsing novalike variable DW UMa made by the CBA consortium between 1999 and 2015. Analysis of 372 new and 260 previously published eclipse timings reveals a 13.6 year period or…

We present new long-term CCD photometry for EP And acquired during the period 2007 to 2012. The light curves display total eclipses at primary minima and season-to-season light variability. Our synthesis for all available light curves…

The first four-color light curves of V868 Mon in the $B$ $V$ $R_c$ and $I_c$ bands are presented and analyzed by using the Wilson-Devinney method of the 2013 version. It is discovered that V868 Mon is an A-subtype contact binary…

This paper report results from the first long-term BV(RI)c photometric CCD observations of three variable pre-main-sequence stars collected during the period from February 2007 to January 2020. The investigated stars are located in the…

The photometric light curve of PG1302-102 shows periodic variability which makes this object one of the most plausible supermassive black hole binary candidate. Interestingly, the most recent study of its updated optical light curve reports…

We present the revised and high quality CCD time series observations in 2017 and 2018 of the W UMa-type contact binary BH~Cas. The combination of our new determinations of minimum times and those collected from the literatures reveal a…

We present new optical and infrared photometric observations and high resolution H$\alpha$ spectra of the periodic radio star \lsi. The optical photometric data set covers the time interval 1985-1993 and amounts to about a hundred nights. A…

We present a new period study and light-curve solutions for the A-Type W UMa binary GSC 3208 1986. Contrary to a previous claim by R.G. Samec et al. of a rapidly decreasing period, the system's period is increasing moderately on a timescale…

The W Vir-type variable star, RU Cam, once claimed to have stopped pulsation, has been known to show irregularly variable amplitude. It has also shown from the analysis of the VSOLJ archive that visual observers of the VSOLJ have recorded…

We present a long-term and intraday variability study on optical multiwaveband ($U\!BV\!RI$) data from the blazar AO 0235+164 collected by various telescopes for $\sim$44 years (1975--2019). The blazar was found to be significantly variable…
