BK Lyncis: The Oldest Old Nova?... And a Bellwether for Cataclysmic-Variable Evolution
Joseph Patterson, Helena Uthas, Jonathan Kemp +21
We summarize the results of a 20-year campaign to study the light curves of BK Lyncis, a nova-like star strangely located below the 2-3 hour orbital period gap in the family of cat…
GEOS RR Lyr Survey: Blazhko Period Measurement of Three RRab Stars - CX Lyrae, NU Aurigae and VY Corona Borealis
Pierre de Ponthiere, Jean-Francois Le Borgne, F. Fumagalli +6
We present the results of collaborative observations of three RR Lyrae stars (CX Lyr, NU Aur and VY CrB) which have a strong Blazhko effect. This work has been initiated and perfor…
The orbital and superhump periods of the deeply eclipsing dwarf nova PU UMa
Jeremy Shears, Franz-Josef Hambsch, Colin Littlefield +5
We report unfiltered photometry during superoutbursts of PU UMa in 2009 and 2012. The amplitude was 4.5 magnitudes above mean quiescence and lasted at least 9 to 10 days. Superhump…
The first confirmed superoutburst of the dwarf nova GALEX J215818.5+241924
Jeremy Shears, Robert Koff, Gianluca Masi +6
In 2011 October an optical transient was reported in Pegasus as a possible nova. The object had an ultraviolet counterpart, GALEX J215818.5+241924. In this paper we present follow-…
The orbital and superhump periods of the dwarf nova SDSS J093249.57+472523.0
Jeremy Shears, Steve Brady, Shawn Dvorak +4
We report unfiltered CCD photometry of the eclipsing dwarf nova SDSS J093249.57+472523.0 obtained during its first confirmed outburst in 2011 March. The outburst amplitude was at l…
