The Periodic Signals of Nova V1674 Herculis (2021)

Joseph Patterson, Marguerite Epstein-Martin, Josie Enenstein +24

We present time-series photometry during eruption of the extremely fast nova V1674 Herculis (Nova Her 2021). The 2021 light curve showed periodic signals at 0.152921(3) d and 501.4…

IM Normae: The Death Spiral of a Cataclysmic Variable?

Joseph Patterson, Jonathan Kemp, Berto Monard +18

We present a study of the orbital light curves of the recurrent nova IM Normae since its 2002 outburst. The broad "eclipses" recur with a 2.46 hour period, which increases on a tim…

The Spin-Period History of Intermediate Polars

Joseph Patterson, Enrique de Miguel, Jonathan Kemp +25

We report the detailed history of spin-period changes in five intermediate polars (DQ Herculis, AO Piscium, FO Aquarii, V1223 Sagittarii, and BG Canis Minoris) during the 30-60 yea…

Orbital Period Changes in WZ Sagittae

Joseph Patterson, Geoffrey Stone, Jonathan Kemp +19

We report a long-term (1961-2017) study of the eclipse times in the dwarf nova WZ Sagittae, in an effort to learn its rate of orbital-period change. Some wiggles with a time scale…

IGR J19552+0044: A new asynchronous short period polar: "Filling the gap between intermediate and ordinary polars"

G. Tovmassian, D. Gonzalez-Buitrago, J. Thorstensen +23

Based on XMM--Newton X-ray observations IGR J19552+0044 appears to be either a pre-polar or an asynchronous polar. We conducted follow-up optical observations to identify the sourc…

Accretion-disc precession in UX Ursae Majoris

E. de Miguel, J. Patterson, D. Cejudo +25

We report the results of a long campaign of time-series photometry on the nova-like variable UX Ursae Majoris during 2015. It spanned 150 nights, with ~1800 hours of coverage on 12…
