XSS J12270-4859 is an X-ray binary associated with the Fermi LAT gamma-ray source 1FGL J1227.9-4852. In 2012 December, this source underwent a transition where the X-ray and optical luminosity dropped and the spectral signatures of an…

We calculated physical and orbital properties for 2M06464003+0109157, a 1.06 day eclipsing double lined spectroscopic binary. We modelled the system's ASAS-SN and TESS light curves, measuring the system's inclination and radii of each…

HD149404 is an evolved non-eclipsing O-star binary that has previously undergone a Roche lobe overflow interaction. Understanding some key properties of the system requires a determination of the orbital inclination and of the dimensions of…

We report photometric observations of the trans-Neptunian object 2004~TT$_{357}$ obtained in 2015 and 2017 using the 4.3~m Lowell's Discovery Channel Telescope. We derive a rotational period of 7.79$\pm$0.01~h and a peak-to-peak lightcurve…

We report the discovery of ZTF J0127+5258, a compact mass-transferring binary with an orbital period of 13.7 minutes. The system contains a white dwarf accretor, which likely originated as a post-common envelope carbon-oxygen (CO) white…

We carried out I, R, V and B photometric observations of the neutron star X-ray binary RXTE J2123-058 shortly after the end of the X-ray outburst in mid-1998. We adopt the low mass binary model to interpret our observations. After folding…

We presented the multi-filter light curves of CSS_J154915.7+375506 inaugurally, which were observed by the 1.5 m AZT-22 telescope at Maidanak Astronomical Observatory. A low-resolution spectrum obtained by LAMOST reveals it is an A-type…

We study the radial-velocity and light curves of the two eclipsing binaries EE Aqr and Z Vul. Using the latest version of the Wilson & Van Hamme (2003) model, absolute parameters for the systems are determined. We find that EE Aqr and Z Vul…

Photometric observations and analysis of twelve previously poorly studied contact binary systems is presented. All show total eclipses and have extremely low mass ratios ranging from 0.072 to 0.15. Also, all show characteristics of orbital…

In this paper, we analyze the light variation of KIC 8840638 using high-precision time-series data from $Kepler$ mission. The analysis reveals this target is a new Algol-type eclipsing binary system with a $\delta$ Scuti component, not a…
