A survey for variable young stars with small telescopes - XI. Spot Lifetimes and Coverage Distributions

Dirk Froebrich, Carys Herbert, Aleks Scholz +47

We present a homogeneous analysis of rotational variability and spot properties in young stellar objects across multiple star-forming regions observed by the Hunting Outbursting Yo…

MASTER OT J030227.28+191754.5: an unprecedentedly energetic dwarf nova outburst

Yusuke Tampo, Taichi Kato, Keisuke Isogai +60

We present a detailed study of the MASTER OT J030227.28+191754.5 outburst in 2021-2022, reaching an amplitude of 10.2 mag and a duration of 60 d. The detections of (1) the double-p…

A survey for variable stars with small telescopes: IX -- Evolution of Spot Properties on YSOs in IC5070

Carys Herbert, Dirk Froebrich, Siegfried Vanaverbeke +45

We present spot properties on 32 periodic young stellar objects in IC 5070. Long term, 5 yr, light curves in the , , and -bands are obtained through the HOYS (Huntin…

Optical and soft X-ray light-curve analysis during the 2022 eruption of U Scorpii: structural changes in the accretion disk

Katsuki Muraoka, Naoto Kojiguchi, Junpei Ito +52

We present our optical photometric observations of the 2022 eruption of the recurrent nova U Scorpii (U Sco) using 49,152 data points over 70 d following the optical peak. We have…

SDSS J094002.56+274942.0: an SU UMa star with an orbital period of 3.92 hours and an apparently unevolved secondary

Taichi Kato, Tonny Vanmunster

We found that SDSS J094002.56+274942.0 underwent a superoutburst in 2019 February based on our observations and Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) data. This object showed shallow ecl…

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…
