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…
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 the nine-year light curve of the cataclysmic variable 1RXS J140429.5+172352 from 2005 April to 2014 July. We identified four dwarf nova-like outbursts, which typically lasted 3 to 5 days, with an amplitude of 3.1 to 5.3…
We report the photometric observations of an SU UMa-type dwarf nova VW CrB during two superoutbursts in 2001 and 2003 and a normal outburst in 2003. Superhumps with a period of 0.07287(1) d were observed during the 2003 superoutburst. The…
The multi-site photometric observations of MN Dra were made over 77 nights in August-November, 2009. The total exposure was 433 hours. During this time the binary underwent two superoutbursts and five normal outbursts. During the course of…
During re-processing and analysis of the entire ROSAT Wide Field Camera (WFC) pointed observations database, we discovered a serendipitous, off-axis detection of the cataclysmic variable SW UMa at the onset of its 1997 October…
CCD photometric observations of the dwarf nova V1006 Cyg were carried out in 2015-2017 with 11 telescopes located at 7 observatories. They covered the 2015 superoutburst with rebrightening, five normal outbursts of ~4-day duration and one…
Continuing the project described by Kato et al. (2009, arXiv:0905.1757), we collected times of superhump maxima for 102 SU UMa-type dwarf novae observed mainly during the 2014-2015 season and characterized these objects. Our project has…
Z Andromedae is a prototype of classical symbiotic variable stars. It is characterized by alternating of quiescent and active stages, the later ones are accompanied by changes in both photometry and spectral characteristics of this object.…
We report on extensive photometry of the dwarf nova SS Ursae Minoris throughout nine months of 2004. In total, we recorded two superoutbursts and 11 normal outbursts of the star. SS UMi has been known to show frequent superoutbursts with a…
AH Her is a Z Cam-type dwarf nova with an orbital period of ~ 0.258 d. Dwarf nova oscillations and long-period dwarf nova oscillations have been detected, but no quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) and negative superhumps (NSHs) have been…
We report a CCD optical photometry of a dwarf nova AL Com in superoutburst. Before superhumps occurred the light curve was highly variable with dominant periods about 41 minutes and 81.5 minutes for different nights. The period of observed…
We report on time-resolved photometric observations of the WZ Sge-type dwarf nova, EG Cnc (Huruhata's variable, see also http://www.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/vsnet/DNe/egcnc.html), during its superoutburst in 1996-1997. EG Cnc, after the main…
We have taken a 4-day spectroscopic observation and have been conducting a 13-day photometric study of the SU UMa-type dwarf nova, ER Ursae Majoris. The mean $K$-amplitude for the emission lines is $54\pm 8$ km s$^{-1}$ and $\gamma$…
WZ Sge-type dwarf novae form one of the most intriguing classes of compact accreting binaries. They are recognized as the most evolved population of hydrogen-rich cataclysmic variables. Yet they exhibit energetic disk-powered outbursts with…
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 carried out a search for unknown dwarf novae in a public data release of the Zwicky Transient Facility survey and suspected that the object ZTF18abdlzhd is a SU UMa-type star. Performed multicolor CCD observations permit us to follow its…
GZ Cnc was discovered as a variable star by Takamizawa (Tmz V34), which turned out to a cataclysmic variable (CV). Past studies have shown that this object is a good candidate for a rarely outbursting, long-period dwarf nova. Only three…
We have studied the UV spectral behavior of the recurrent nova T Pyx during 16 years of IUE observations. We examined both the IUE line-by-line images and the extracted spectra in order to understand the reality and the origin of the…
Far ultraviolet (FUV) observations are excellent probes of the inner accretion disk, disk outflows, and the mass-accumulating white dwarf in cataclysmic variables. Here we study the contrasting behavior of two canonical dwarf novae in…
