The binaries known as cataclysmic variables are particular binary systems in which the primary star (a white dwarf) accretes material from a secondary via Roche-lobe mechanism. Usually, these objects have orbital period of a few hours so…

We present a multi-object optical spectroscopy follow-up study of X-ray sources in a field along the Galactic Plane (l=327.42 deg, b=2.26 deg) which is part of the Chandra Multi-wavelength Plane survey (ChaMPlane). We obtained spectra for…

We report on the Swift/XRT Deep Galactic Plane Survey discovery and multi-wavelength follow-up observations of a new intermediate polar Cataclysmic Variable, Swift J183920.1-045350. A 449.7 s spin period is found in Xmm-Newton and NuSTAR…

We analysed high time-resolution optical photometric data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) to study the timing behaviour of four intermediate polar-like objects, namely, V1460 Her, 1RXS J045707.4+452751, Swift…

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…

We present 17 cataclysmic variables (CVs) obtained from the crossmatch between the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS), including 8 known CVs before eFEDS and 9 identified from eFEDS. The…

MASTER OT J190519.41+301524.4 was discovered as an optical transient of 15.7m by the Mobile Astronomical System of TElescope-Robots in March 2014. We report the results of photometric observations of this variable performed at Lajatico…

The new transient IGR 16358-4726 was discovered on 2003 March 19 with INTEGRAL. We detected the source serendipitously during our 2003 March 24 observation of SGR 1627-41 with the Chandra X-ray Observatory at the 1.7 x 10^{-10} ergs s^{-1}…

We report time-resolved photometry of the cataclysmic variable V849 Her, and measure a period of 0.1414 \pm 0.0030 days (3.394 \pm 0.072 hours). We also present photometry taken over several weeks in 2010 and 2011, as well as light curves…

We present volume-limited samples of cataclysmic variables (CVs) and AM CVn binaries jointly selected from SRG/eROSITA eRASS1 and \textit{Gaia} DR3 using an X-ray + optical color-color diagram (the ``X-ray Main Sequence"). This tool…

Using a recent Chandra ACIS observation of the eclipsing cataclysmic variable (CV) V1460 Her (2MASS J16211735+4412541) with a fast-rotating ($P_{\rm spin} = 38.9$~s) white dwarf, we estimated a flux $F_{0.5-7 {\rm keV}}^{\rm abs} = (1.9\pm…

RX J2309.8+2135 = 1RXS J230949.6+213523 is an X-ray source discovered through the ROSAT all-sky survey. The object was later identified with a star showing a spectrum resembling a cataclysmic variable (CV). Schwope et al. (2002,…

The growing number of multi-epoch optical and infrared sky surveys are uncovering unprecedented numbers of new variable stars, of an increasing number of types. The short interval between observations in adjacent near infrared filters in…

RW Triangulum (RW Tri) is a 13th magnitude Nova-like Cataclysmic Variable star with an orbital period of 0.2319 days (5.56 hours). Infrared observations of RW Tri indicate that its secondary is most likely a late K-dwarf. Past analyses…
