We have performed a new search for DPVs of short period in the ASAS catalog (Pojmanski, G., 1997), focusing on those stars with orbital periods between 2 to 3 days which also show variations in their brightness. From a total of 244 objects, we have found another candidate to DPV, one whose mean brightness is gradually decreasing. By fitting a 3rd order polynomial to the mean magnitude and then moving it to zero for a second analysis, a gradual decrease over 2500 days was revealed. During the last 1000 days of this decrease, a 42% increase in the variation between the minimum and maximum values of the magnitude was observed. We determined the orbital period by using the PDM IRAF software (Stellingwerf 1978) and estimated the errors for the orbital period and long cycle by visual inspection of the light curves phased with trial periods near the minimum of the periodogram given by PDM.

Multi-color light curves and radial velocities for TYC,1031,1262,1 have been obtained and analyzed. TYC,1031,1262,1 includes a Cepheid with a period of 4.15270$pm$0.00061 days. The orbital period of the system is about 51.2857$pm$0.0174 days. The pulsation period indicates a secular period increase with an amount of 2.46$pm$0.54 min/yr. The observed B, V, and R magnitudes were cleaned for the intrinsic variations of the primary star. The remaining light curves, consisting of eclipses and proximity effects, are obtained and analyzed for orbital parameters. The system consists of two evolved stars, F8II+G6II, with masses of M$_1$=1.640$pm$0.151 {Msun} and M$_2$=0.934$pm$0.109 {Msun} and radii of R$_1$=26.9$pm$0.9 {Rsun} and R$_2$=15.0$pm$0.7 {Rsun}. The pulsating star is almost filling its corresponding Roche lobe which indicates the possibility of mass loss or transfer having taken place. We find an average distance of d=5070$pm$250,pc using the BVR and JHK magnitudes and also the V-band extinction. Kinematic properties and the distance to the galactic plane with an amount of 970 pc indicate that it belongs to the thick-disk population. Most of the observed and calculated parameters of the TYC,1031,1262,1 lead to a classification of an Anomalous Cepheid.
We present the 13-year light curve of HW Boo between 2001 May and 2014 May. We identified 12 outbursts, which typically lasted 2 to 5 days, with an amplitude of 2.7 to 3.6 magnitudes. Time resolved photometry during two outbursts revealed small hump-like structures which increased in size as the outburst progressed, reaching a peak-to-peak amplitude of ~0.8 mag. They occurred on timescales of 15 min to an hour, but did not exhibit a stable period. Similar irregular hump-like variations of 0.1 to 0.8 magnitudes, at intervals of 7 to 30 minutes, were also detected during quiescence. We discuss whether HW Boo might be a dwarf nova of the SU UMa family or an Intermediate Polar, but require further observations to support classification.
We have investigated the nature of the variability of CHS7797, an unusual periodic variable in the Orion Nebula Cluster. An extensive I-band photometric data set of CHS7797 was compiled between 2004-2010 using various telescopes. Further optical data have been collected in R and z bands. In addition, simultaneous observations of the ONC region including CHS7797 were performed in the I, J, Ks and IRAC [3.6] and [4.5] bands over a time interval of about 40d. CHS7797 shows an unusual large-amplitude variation of about 1.7 mag in the R, I, and z bands with a period 17.786. The amplitude of the brightness modulation decreases only slightly at longer wavelengths. The star is faint during 2/3 of the period and the shape of the phased light-curves for seven different observing seasons shows minor changes and small-amplitude variations. Interestingly, there are no significant colour-flux correlations for wavelengths smaller than 2microns, while the object becomes redder when fainter at longer wavelengths. CHS7797 has a spectral type of M6 and an estimated mass between 0.04-0.1Msun. The analysis of the data suggests that the periodic variability of CHS7797 is most probably caused by an orbital motion. Variability as a result of rotational brightness modulation by spots is excluded by the lack of any color-brightness correlation in the optical. The latter indicates that CHS7797 is most probably occulted by circumstellar matter in which grains have grown from typical 0.1 microns to 1-2 micron sizes. We discuss two possible scenarios in which CHS7797 is periodically eclipsed by structures in a disc, namely that CHS7797 is a single object with a circumstellar disc, or that CHS7797 is a binary system, similar to KH15D, in which an inclined circumbinary disc is responsible of the variability. Possible reasons for the typical 0.3mag variations in I-band at a given phase are discussed.
DQ Velorum is a galactic double periodic variable (DPV), this system is a semi-detached binary comprised of a B-type gainer and an A-type donor star plus an extended accretion disc around the gainer. The system also presents an orbital period of $6.08337$~days and a long period of $189$~days whose origin is still under debate. Here we studied the possibility that this period may be driven by a magnetic dynamo investigating the entire evolution of the system. The model matches in a very good way the current state of the system and it can potentially be used to describe the evolution of DQ Velorum. It also predicts an increase of the dynamo number of the donor during epochs of high mass transfer in this system, and a theoretical long/orbital period ratio very close to the observed one at the present system age.
We report the discovery of 3 new Double Periodic Variables based on the analysis of ASAS-SN light curves: GSD J11630570-510306, V593 Sco and TYC 6939-678-1. These systems have orbital periods between 10 and 20 days and long cycles between 300 and 600 days.
