The classical nova V2491 Cyg was once suggested to be a recurrent nova. We have broadly reproduced the light curve of V2491 Cyg by a nova outburst model on a cold $1.36~M_\odot$ white dwarf (WD), which strongly suggests that V2491 Cyg is a…
We report observations during 2008 October of the first recorded superoutburst of a previously unknown SU UMa-type dwarf nova in Draco located at 19h 14m 43.52s +60d 52m 14.1s (J2000). Simbad lists a 21st magnitude star at this position…
The dwarf nova CG Dra was intensively monitored during 2005 as part of the Variable Star Sections Recurrent Objects Programme and seven outbursts were detected. These observations were combined with others from the BAA and AAVSO databases…
We present extensive, high-density Swift observations of V2491 Cyg (Nova Cyg 2008 No. 2). Observing the X-ray emission from only one day after the nova discovery, the source is followed through the initial brightening, the Super-Soft Source…
We present the complete set of thirty four ASCA observations of non-magnetic cataclysmic variables. Timing analysis reveals large X-ray flux variations in dwarf novae in outburst (Z Cam, SS Cyg and SU UMa) and orbital modulation in high…
The secular variation in the interval of outbursts in the following six Z Cam-type dwarf novae (including the subtype IW And-type) is investigated: Z Cam, RX And, AH Her, HL CMa, SY Cnc, and WW Cet. An analysis using the $O-C$ diagram shows…
The nova outburst experienced in 2010 by the symbiotic binary Mira V407 Cyg has been extensively studied at optical and infrared wavelengths with both photometric and spectroscopic observations. This outburst, reminiscent of similar events…
We investigated the superhump evolution, analysing optical photometric observations of the 2000 February-March, the 2002 October-November, and the 2006 September superoutbursts of SW UMa. The superhumps evolved in the same way after their…
ER Ursae Majoris is the prototype for a subset of SU UMa-type dwarf novae characterized by short cycle times between outburst, high outburst frequency, and ``negative'' superhumps. It suffers superoutbursts every 43 days, lasting 20 days,…
We present 120s cadence TESS observations of three superoutbursts of the SU UMa-type dwarf nova VW Hydri. Two events (SO2 in Sectors 87+88 and SO3 in Sector 93) exhibit a pronounced, temporally pronounced precursor-dip followed by a rapid…
We conducted a time-resolved photometric campaign of the helium dwarf nova, 2003aw in 2004 May--June. 2003aw stayed at 14.7--15.7 mag for the first several days during this campaign, which is the plateau phase of this superoutburst. This…
We report extensive photometry of the frequently outbursting dwarf nova RZ Leo Minoris. During two seasons of observations we detected 12 superoutbursts and 7 normal outbursts. The V magnitude of the star varied in range from 16.5 to 13.9…
Nova-like variables are high-accretion-rate cataclysmic variables (CVs) that, in contrast to dwarf novae, do not undergo outbursts caused by thermal-viscous instability. However, a small group of nova-likes, classified as AH Pic-type stars,…
We analyzed the Kepler long cadence data of KIC 7524178 (=KIS J192254.92+430905.4), and found that it is an SU UMa-type dwarf nova with frequent normal outbursts. The signal of the negative superhump was always the dominant one even during…
We observed an anomalously outbursting state of SU UMa which occurred in 1992. Time-resolved photometry revealed the presence of signals with a period of 0.0832 +/- 0.0019 d, which is 3.6 sigma longer than the orbital period (0.07635 d) of…
On 2010 Mar 10, V407 Cyg was discovered in outburst, eventually reaching V< 8 and detected by Fermi. Using medium and high resolution ground-based optical spectra, visual and Swift UV photometry, and Swift X-ray spectrophotometry, we…
We present here the results of eight years of our near-simultaneous optical/near-infrared spectro-photometric monitoring of bonafide FUor candidate `V2493 Cyg' starting from 2013 September to 2021 June. During our optical monitoring period…
We report unfiltered photometry of SDSS J112003.40+663632.4 during the 2011 February outburst which revealed the presence of superhumps with peak-to-peak amplitude of up to 0.22 magnitudes showing this to be an SU UMa type dwarf nova. The…
The short-period cataclysmic variable WZ Sge underwent its first dwarf nova outburst in 23 years in 2001 July. Here we describe 905-1187 Ang. spectra obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) during the outburst and…
Continuing the project described by Kato et al. (2009a, arXiv:0905.1757), we collected times of superhump maxima for SU UMa-type dwarf novae mainly observed during the 2012-2013 season. We found three objects (V444 Peg, CSS J203937 and…
