We have used optical V and R band observations from the Massive Compact Halo Object (MACHO) project on a sample of 59 quasars behind the Magellanic clouds to study their long term optical flux and colour variations. These quasars lying in…
We present the first results of a time-resolved CCD photometric and time-series analysis of NSV 13601, a variable star of Pegasus constellation. The 14" SCT of Maharaja Krishnakumarsinhji Bhavnagar University(MKBU) was used for…
We present results of a multi-epoch intra-night optical monitoring of eleven blazars consisting of six BL Lac objects and five radio core-dominated quasars (CDQs). These densely sampled and sensitive R-band CCD observations, carried out…
The Chinese Small Telescope ARray (CSTAR) carried out high-cadence time-series observations of 27 square degrees centered on the South Celestial Pole during the Antarctic winter seasons of 2008, 2009 and 2010. Aperture photometry of the…
We present the first detailed photometric characterization of TIC 470127886, a previously unstudied multi-periodic variable star discovered in TESS photometry. Analysis of 145,374 high-cadence observations spanning 696 days (944-day…
We present results of a BVI variability survey in the young open cluster NGC 457 based on observations obtained during three separate runs spanning almost 20 years. In total, we found 79 variable stars, of which 66 are new. The BVI…
MU Cas is a detached eclipsing binary containing two B5 V stars in an orbit of period 9.653 d and eccentricity 0.192, which has been observed in seven sectors using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). We use these new light…

We present VI photometry for the open cluster NGC 637 which is located in the Cassiopeia region. Morphology of cluster color-magnitude diagram indicates that it is a young object with age of a few million years. The apparent distance…
We present the results on the photometric and spectroscopic monitoring of a luminous Ap star HD103498. The time-series photometric observations were carried out on 17 nights using three-channel fast photometer attached to the 1.04-m optical…
We have investigated the variable stars in the field surrounding NGC 2355 based on the time-series photometric observation data. More than 3000 CCD frames were obtained in the V band spread over 13 nights with the Nanshan One-meter…
The ROTSE-I experiment has generated CCD photometry for the entire Northern sky in two epochs nightly since March 1998. These sky patrol data are a powerful resource for studies of astrophysical transients. As a demonstration project, we…
We report detailed follow-up observations of 8 cataclysmic variable stars (CVs) that are apparently AM Her stars, also called polars. For all, we either determine orbital periods for the first time, or improve on existing determinations.…
We present time-resolved CCD photometry of V2275 Cyg 790 days after the nova outburst. The data show a 20% peak-to-peak oscillation with a period of 24 minutes. The period appears stable over the two nights of observation, but QPO can not…
We have continued our effort to re-reduce archival Q0957+561 brightness monitoring data and present results for 1629 R-band images using the methods for galaxy subtraction and seeing correction reported previously. The new dataset comes…
We report broad-band X-ray measurements of the Be star Gamma Cassiopeiae by the BeppoSAX X-ray astronomy satellite. The observations took place on 1998 July, 18-23. The 0.1-200 keV X-ray spectrum is reasonably well fit by an optically thin…
This paper presents optical night sky brightness measurements from the stratosphere using CCD images taken with the Super-pressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope (SuperBIT). The data used for estimating the backgrounds were obtained during…
New UBV-photometry obtained in 2000-2008 is presented for the post-AGB star IRAS 22272+5435=V354 Lac. The star showed semi-regular light variations with varying amplitudes. The maximal amplitude did not exceed 0.5 in V-band. For 2000-2008,…
