Timing Analysis of the Intermediate Polar V709 Cas

Abstract

We have carried detailed time-resolved timing analysis of an intermediate polar V709 Cas using the long-baseline, short-cadence optical photometric data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. We found an orbital period of 5.3341 $\pm$ 0.0004 hr, a spin period of 312.75 $\pm$ 0.02 sec, and a beat period of 317.93 $\pm$ 0.03 sec, which is similar to the earlier published results. From the continuous high cadence data, we found that V709 Cas is a disc overflow system with disc-fed dominance.
