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 cataclysmic variables. Two apparent ... -
SDSS J162520.29+120308.7 – a new SU Ursae Majoris star in the period gap
Olech, A.; Miguel Agustino, Enrique de; Otulakowska-Hypka, M.; Thorstensen, J. R.; Rutkowski, A.; Novak, R.; Masi, G.; Richmond, M.; Staels, B.; Lowther, S.; Stein, W.; Ak, T.; Boyd, David; Koff, Robert; Patterson, Joseph; Eker, Z. (European Southern Observatory, 2011)
We report results of an extensive world-wide observing campaign devoted to the recently discovered dwarf nova SDSS J162520.29+120308.7 (SDSS J1625). The data were obtained during the July 2010 eruption of the star and in ... -
The asynchronous polar V1432 Aquilae and its path back to synchronism
