V452 Cas was thought to have rare outbursts, but monitoring from 2005 to 2008 has shown that the outburst interval is about one month and is weakly periodic. Observations of seven superoutbursts over the same period shows a very repeatable…

We present observations and analysis of the 2009 outburst of the unusual dwarf nova V630 Cas which is only the third recorded outburst of this star. The outburst lasted about 104 days, with the rise to maximum being slightly slower than the…

We report photometry of three outbursts of NN Cam in 2007, 2008 and 2009. The 2007 event started with a normal outburst, lasting about 4 days, which was a precursor to a superoutburst lasting at least 13 days. Both the precursor and the…

During the outburst of V713 Cephei in August 2009 the times of 8 eclipses were measured and these, together with 5 eclipse timings obtained during quiescence in August 2007, provide an improved orbital period of 0.085418432(4)d. No…

We present the 2005-2010 outburst history of the SUUMa-type dwarf HS 0417+7445,along with a detailed analysis of extensive time-series photometry obtained in March 2008 during the second recorded superoutburst of the system. The mean…

I propose that the properties of the two outbursts observed in the X-ray transient XTE J1118+480 in 2000 are akin to superoutbursts of SU UMa stars. In these systems a `normal' outburst immediately precedes a 5-10 times longer…

We report unfiltered photometry of the first confirmed outburst of the AM CVn system SDSS J012940.05+384210.4 during 2009 December. At its brightest the star was magnitude 14.5, 5.4 magnitudes above mean quiescence. Although the first part…

We report on time-resolved photometry of the 2005 July superoutburst of the dwarf nova, 2QZ J021927.9-304545. The resultant light curves showed conspicuous superhumps with a period of 0.081113(19) days, confirming the SU UMa nature of the…

During June 2007 the first confirmed superoutburst of the eclipsing dwarf nova SDSS J122740.83+513925.9 was observed using CCD photometry. The outburst amplitude was at least 4.7 magnitudes. The orbital period was measured as 0.06296(5) d…

Analysis of observations of the SU UMa-type dwarf nova, CP Dra, between February 2001 and April 2009 has revealed 15 outbursts, at least eight of which were superoutbursts. The supercycle length is 230+/-56 d. We report photometry of the…

We present the analysis of eclipses observed in dwarf nova HT Cas during its superoutburst in November 2010. Detection of hot spot was confirmed.

We report the discovery of a new dwarf nova and our observations of its first confirmed superoutburst during 2009 October. The outburst amplitude was 6 magnitudes. The main outburst lasted 17 days and was followed 4 days later by a…

Spectroscopic monitoring of the yellow hypergiant $\rho$ Cas revealed a new outburst in 2013, which is obvious from the development of TiO bands in the spectra. Also many atmospheric lines characteristic for a later spectral type appear.…

In early 2008, the young low-mass star EX Lupi, the prototype of the EXor class of eruptive variables, optically brightened by over five magnitudes for a period of 7 months. The previous time a change of such amplitude had been observed in…

Broad-band photometric and moderate-resolution spectroscopic observations of the young eruptive star V1647 Ori, obtained between 28 August and 1 September 2008, are presented. The observed magnitudes and emission line equivalent widths of…

We present photometric observations of the dwarf nova 1RXS J053234.9+624755. We performed a detailed analysis of the superoutburst that occurred in August 2009. We found the superhump period to be P_sh=0.057122(14)days. Based on the O-C…

We report unfiltered CCD observations of the first confirmed superoutburst of the dwarf nova RX J1715.6+6856 in August 2009. At quiescence the star was magnitude 18.3 (CCD, clear). The outburst amplitude was at least 2.4 magnitudes and it…

We report photometry of V358 Lyr during its 2008 November outburst, the first confirmed outburst since 1965. At its brightest the star was V=15.9 and the outburst amplitude was at least 7.3 magnitudes and lasted at least 23 days. The first…

We present photometry obtained during the 2012 May and September outbursts of the frequently outbursting dwarf nova, V1227 Her. Superhumps were present in both cases with a peak-to peak amplitude of up to 0.28 mag, showing these events to…

We report unfiltered CCD photometry of the first confirmed superoutburst of the recently discovered dwarf nova, SDSS J083931.35+282824.0 in April 2010. From a quiescence magnitude of ~19.8 it rose to 14.0, an outburst amplitude of at least…
