Despite being bright ($V=12$) and nearby ($d=212$ pc) ASAS J071404+7004.3 has only recently been identified as a nova-like cataclysmic variable. We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy obtained at the Isaac Newton Telescope together…

We report the identification of the cataclysmic variable 1RXSJ062518.2+733433 as an intermediate polar. The orbital period of the system is determined to be 283.0+-2 min from the radial velocity variation of Halpha, measured in an extensive…

GSC 4560-02157 is a new eclipsing cataclysmic variable with an orbital period of $0.265359$ days. By using the published $V-$ and $R-$band data together with our observations, we discovered that the $O-C$ curve of GSC 4560-02157 may shows a…

We present the first time-resolved spectroscopic study of the cataclysmic variable DW Cancri. We have determined an orbital period of 86.10 +- 0.05 min, which places the system very close to the observed minimum period of hydrogen-rich…

I performed photometric observations of the poorly studied cataclysmic variable IPHAS J013031.89+622132.3 and discovered very deep eclipses. I obtained observations over 14 nights for a total time of 50 hours during a time span of 6 months.…

We present results from our phase-resolved spectroscopy of the newly identified cataclysmic variable Halpha0242-2802. Halpha0242-2802 was identified from a deep UK Schmidt Halpha-R band survey as a candidate cataclysmic variable. Although…

We present the discovery of SDSS J135154.46-064309.0, a short-period variable observed using 30-minute cadence photometry in K2 Campaign 6. Follow-up spectroscopy and high-speed photometry support a classification as a new member of the…

We present the TESS observations of CRTS J110014.7+131552, SDSS J093537.46+161950.8, and [PK2008] HalphaJ130559. Among them, a superoutburst is observed in CRTS J110014.7+131552 which is associated with the precursor outburst, where…

SDSS 1355+0856 was identified as a hot white dwarf (WD) with a binary companion from time-resolved SDSS spectroscopy as part of the ongoing SWARMS survey. Follow-up observations with the ARC 3.5m telescope and the MMT revealed weak emission…

We report our investigation of 1SWASP J234401.81-212229.1, a variable with a 18461.6 s period. After identification in a 2011 search of the SuperWASP archive for main-sequence eclipsing binary candidates near the distribution's short-period…

PHL 1445 is found to be an eclipsing cataclysmic variable with an orbital period of 76.3 minutes. GALEX J003535.7+462353 is a new eclipsing dwarf nova with an orbital period of 4.13 hours. Both objects show deep eclipses with an amplitude…

ZTF J153932.16+502738.8 (ZTFJ1539) is an eclipsing double-white-dwarf system with an orbital period of 6.91 minutes, and is a significant source of LISA detecting gravitational wave. However, the massive white dwarf (WD) with mass of about…

The binary companion to the peculiar F supergiant HD 172481 is shown to be a Mira variable with a pulsation period of 312 days. Its characteristics are within the normal range found for solitary Miras of that period, although its pulsation…

We report on the discovery of J0644+3344, a bright deeply eclipsing cataclysmic variable (CV) binary. Spectral signatures of both binary components and an accretion disk can be seen at optical wavelengths. The optical spectrum shows broad H…

We report on optical spectroscopic and photometric follow-up observations of the eROSITA discovered transient SRGt 062340.2-265751 and show that it displays the characteristics of a nova-like cataclysmic variable (CV), with possible…

We report photometry and spectroscopy of the novalike variable DW Cancri. The spectra show the usual broad H and He emission lines, with an excitation and continuum slope characteristic of a moderately high accretion rate. A radial-velocity…

We report results of an extensive world-wide observing campaign devoted to the recently discovered dwarf nova SDSS J162520.29+120308.7 (SDSS J1625). The data were obtained during the July 2010 eruption of the star and in August and…

SDSS J080434.20+510349.2 is the WZ type binary that displayed rare outburst in 2006 (Pavlenko et al., 2007). During the long-lasting tail of the late stage of the outburst binary shown the two-humped or four-humped profile of the orbital…

In over a thousand known cataclysmic variables (CVs), where a white dwarf is accreting from a hydrogen-rich star, only a dozen have orbital periods below 75 minutes. One way to achieve these short periods requires the donor star to have…
