GOTO065054+593624: a 8.5 mag amplitude dwarf nova identified in real time via Kilonova Seekers
T. L. Killestein, G. Ramsay, M. Kennedy +62
Dwarf novae are astrophysical laboratories for probing the nature of accretion, binary mass transfer, and binary evolution -- yet their diverse observational characteristics contin…
PM 1-322: new variable planetary nebula
E. Paunzen, K. Bernhard, J. Budaj +4
Spectra of planetary nebulae (PNe) are characterised by strong forbidden emission lines and often also by an infrared (IR) excess. A few PNe show dust obscuration events and/or har…
2021 superoutburst of WZ Sge-type dwarf nova V627 Pegasi lacks an early superhump phase
Yusuke Tampo, Taichi Kato, Naoto Kojiguchi +27
Superoutbursts in WZ Sge-type dwarf novae (DNe) are characterized by both early superhumps and ordinary superhumps originating from the 2:1 and 3:1 resonances, respectively. Howeve…
PNV J00444033+4113068: early superhumps with 0.7 mag amplitude and non-red color
Yusuke Tampo, Keisuke Isogai, Naoto Kojiguchi +13
In the first days of WZ Sge-type dwarf nova (DN) outbursts, the 2:1 resonance induces a spiral arm structure in the accretion disk, which is observed as early superhumps in optical…
Two Candidate KH 15D-like Systems from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Wei Zhu, Klaus Bernhard, Fei Dai +8
KH 15D contains a circumbinary disk that is tilted relative to the orbital plane of the central binary. The precession of the disk and the orbital motion of the binary together pro…
Investigating the low-flux states in six Intermediate Polars
Ava E. Covington, Aarran W. Shaw, Koji Mukai +30
We present optical photometry of six intermediate polars that exhibit transitions to a low-flux state. For four of these systems, DW Cnc, V515 And, V1223 Sgr and RX J2133.7+5107, w…
Dynamical masses for two M1 + mid-M dwarf binaries monitored during the SPHERE-SHINE survey
Beth A. Biller, Antoine Grandjean, Sergio Messina +25
We present orbital fits and dynamical masses for HIP 113201AB and HIP 36985AB, two M1 + mid-M dwarf binary systems monitored as part of the SPHERE SHINE survey. To robustly determi…
First results on RR Lyrae stars with the TESS space telescope: untangling the connections between mode content, colors and distances
László Molnár, Attila Bódi, András Pál +25
The TESS space telescope is collecting continuous, high-precision optical photometry of stars throughout the sky, including thousands of RR Lyrae stars. In this paper, we present r…
A survey for variable young stars with small telescopes: IV -- Rotation Periods of YSOs in IC5070
Dirk Froebrich, Efthymia Derezea, Aleks Scholz +50
Studying rotational variability of young stars is enabling us to investigate a multitude of properties of young star-disk systems. We utilise high cadence, multi-wavelength optical…
ASASSN-21co: A detached eclipsing binary with an 11.9 year period
D. M. Rowan, K. Z. Stanek, Z. Way +10
We use ASAS V-band and ASAS-SN g-band observations to model the long-period detached eclipsing binary ASASSN-21co. ASAS observations show an eclipse of depth V ~ 0.6 mag in April o…
A search for transiting companions in the J1407 (V1400 Cen) system
S. Barmentloo, C. Dik, M. A. Kenworthy +5
In 2007, the young star 1SWASP J140747.93-394542.6 (V1400 Cen) underwent a complex series of deep eclipses over 56 days. This was attributed to the transit of a ring system filling…
On the nature of the anomalous event in 2021 in the dwarf nova SS Cygni and its multi-wavelength transition
Mariko Kimura, Shinya Yamada, Nozomi Nakaniwa +20
SS Cyg has long been recognized as the prototype of a group of dwarf novae that show only outbursts. However, this object has entered a quite anomalous event in 2021, which at firs…
BO Ceti: Dwarf Nova Showing Both IW And and SU UMa-Type Features
Taichi Kato, Yusuke Tampo, Naoto Kojiguchi +13
IW And stars are a recently recognized subgroup of dwarf novae which are characterized by (often repetitive) slowly rising standstills terminated by brightening, but the exact mech…

We present spectroscopic and photometric observations of 17 dwarf-nova superoutbursts obtained by KOOLS-IFU mounted on the 3.8 m telescope Seimei at Okayama Observatory of Kyoto Un…
HO Puppis: Not a Be Star but a Newly Confirmed IW And-Type Star
Chien-De Lee, Jia-Yu Ou, Po-Chieh Yu +19
HO Puppis (HO Pup) was considered as a Be-star candidate based on its gamma-Cassiopeiae-type light curve, but lacked spectroscopic confirmation. Using distance measured from Gaia D…
