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…
Genuine standstill in the AM CVn star CR Boo
Taichi Kato, Yutaka Maeda, Masayuki Moriyama
CR Boo is one of the brightest and most famous AM CVn stars showing dwarf nova-type outbursts. Previous studies showed different modes of outbursts in this object ranging from the…
Spectroscopic and Photometric Observations of Dwarf Nova Superoutbursts by the 3.8 m Telescope Seimei and the Variable Star Network
Yusuke Tampo, Keisuke Isogai, Naoto Kojiguchi +59
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…
Discovery of Standstills in the SU UMa-Type Dwarf Nova NY Serpentis
Taichi Kato, Elena P. Pavlenko, Nikolaj V. Pit +40
We found that the SU UMa-type dwarf nova NY Ser in the period gap [orbital period 0.097558(6) d] showed standstills twice in 2018. This is the first clear demonstration of a stands…
Rapid Optical Variations Correlated with X-rays in the 2015 Second Outburst of V404 Cygni (GS 2023338)
Mariko Kimura, Taichi Kato, Keisuke Isogai +24
We present optical multi-colour photometry of V404 Cyg during the outburst from December, 2015 to January, 2016 together with the simultaneous X-ray data. This outburst occurred le…
Superoutburst of WZ Sge-type Dwarf Nova Below the Period Minimum: ASASSN-15po
Kosuke Namekata, Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato +38
We report on a superoutburst of a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova (DN), ASASSN-15po. The light curve showed the main superoutburst and multiple rebrightenings. In this outburst, we observed…
RZ Leonis Minoris Bridging between ER Ursae Majoris-Type Dwarf Nova and Novalike System
Taichi Kato, Ryoko Ishioka, Keisuke Isogai +64
We observed RZ LMi, which is renowned for the extremely (~19d) short supercycle and is a member of a small, unusual class of cataclysmic variables called ER UMa-type dwarf novae, i…
Repetitive Patterns in Rapid Optical Variations in the Nearby Black-hole Binary V404 Cygni
Mariko Kimura, Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato +65
How black holes accrete surrounding matter is a fundamental, yet unsolved question in astrophysics. It is generally believed that matter is absorbed into black holes via accretion…
Superoutburst of CR Bootis: Estimation of Mass Ratio of a typical AM CVn star by Stage A Superhumps
Keisuke Isogai, Taichi Kato, Tomohito Ohshima +31
We report on two superoutbursts of the AM CVn-type object CR Boo in 2014 April--March and 2015 May--June. A precursor outburst acompanied both of these superoutbursts. During the r…
PM J03338+3320: Long-Period Superhumps in Growing Phase Following a Separate Precursor Outburst
Taichi Kato, Enrique de Miguel, William Stein +12
We observed the first-ever recorded outburst of PM J03338+3320, the cataclysmic variable selected by proper-motion survey. The outburst was composed of a precursor and the main sup…
V1006 Cygni: Dwarf Nova Showing Three Types of Outbursts and Simulating Some Features of the WZ Sge-Type Behavior
Taichi Kato, Elena P. Pavlenko, Alisa V. Shchurova +17
We observed the 2015 July-August long outburst of V1006 Cyg and established this object to be an SU UMa-type dwarf nova in the period gap. Our observations have confirmed that V100…
Superoutburst of SDSS J090221.35+381941.9: First Measurement of Mass Ratio in an AM CVn-Type Object using Growing Superhumps
Taichi Kato, Tomohito Ohshima, Denis Denisenko +36
We report on a superoutburst of the AM CVn-type object SDSS J090221.35+381941.9 [J0902; orbital period 0.03355(6) d] in 2014 March-April. The entire outburst consisted of a precurs…
