We present the results of 11 nights of CCD unfiltered photometry of V4743 Sgr (Nova Sgr 2002 # 3) from 2003 and 2005. We find two periods of 0.2799 d ~ 6.7 h and 0.01642 d ~ 24 min in the 2005 data. The long period is also present in the…

We present a spectroscopic monitoring of the transient nova V4745 Sagittarii (Nova Sgr 2003 #1) covering ten months after the discovery. During this period the light curve showed well expressed transient phase in the form of six…

Photometric observations of V4633 Sgr (Nova Sagittarii 1998) during 1998-2005 reveal the presence of a stable photometric periodicity at P1=180.8 min which is probably the orbital period of the underlying binary system. A second period was…

SRGt 062340.2-265751, a cataclysmic variable identified by SRG/eROSITA thanks to its significant X-ray variability, remains poorly characterised despite the multi-wavelength follow-up. We present spectral and timing analyses from the first…

We report the results of observations of V4633 Sgr (Nova Sagittarii 1998) during 1998-2000. Two photometric periodicities were present in the light curve during the three years of observations: a stable one at P=3.014 h, which is probably…

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 the results of photometric CCD observations of the magnetic cataclysmic variable V405 Aurigae (RX J0558.0+5353 = 1RXS J055800.7+535358) obtained using different instruments. We analysed variability of the spin period of the white…

We present the results of 26 nights of CCD photometry of the nova V2540 Oph (2002) from 2003 and 2004. We find a period of 0.284781 +/- 0.000006 d (6.8347 +/- 0.0001 h) in the data. Since this period was present in the light curves taken in…

We present the period analysis of unfiltered photometric observations of V5116 Sgr (Nova Sgr 2005 #2) and we search for superhump candidates in novae remnants. The PDM method for period analysis is used. The masses of the novae componets…

We present spectroscopic and photometric observations of the cataclysmic variable CW 1045+525. Both the optical spectrum and the photometric lightcurve show a strong contribution of a K5V - M0V secondary. We derive an orbital period P_orb =…

Magnetic cataclysmic variables are close binaries which consist of a compact object - a white dwarf - and a red dwarf filling its Roche Lobe. Such systems are physical laboratories which enable study of the influence of magnetic fields on…

Based on the X-ray observations from XMM-Newton and Swift, and optical observations from Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and AAVSO, we present temporal and spectral properties of probable intermediate polar SWIFT J0503.7-2819.…

The spectral and photometric studies of the cataclysmic variable Gaia 19cwm (or ZTF19aamkwxk) have been performed. Based on the analysis of long-term variability, it is concluded that the object belongs to WZ Sge type stars. The light…

We have identified a new intermediate polar, HS 0943+1404, as part of our ongoing search for cataclysmic variables in the Hamburg Quasar Survey. The orbital and white dwarf spin periods determined from time-resolved photometry and…

Variability of the spin period of the white dwarf in the V405 Aur (RX J0558.0+5353) system using our observations and previously published maxima timings is analyzed. As the phase light curve contains two nearly equal photometric waves, one…

The classical nova V4743 Sgr was observed with XMM-Newton for about 10 hours on April 4 2003, 6.5 months after optical maximum. At this time, this nova had become the brightest supersoft X-ray source ever observed. We present the results of…

We present the first reliable determination of the orbital period of the recurrent nova V2487 Oph (Nova Oph 1998). We derived a value of $0.753 \pm 0.016$ d ($18.1 \pm 0.4$ h) from the radial velocity curve of the intense He II…

Continuous CCD photometry of Nova Aquilae 1995 was performed through the standard B,V,R and I filters during three nights in 1995 and with the I filter during 18 nights in 1996. The power spectrum of the 1996 data reveals three…

The ROSAT source RX J1039.7-0507, known from its optical spectrum to be a Cataclysmic Variable star, is shown from high speed photometry to have an orbital period of 1.574 h. The system has a nearly sinusoidal photometric modulation with a…
