We report the discovery of 1RXS J173006.4+033813, a polar cataclysmic variable with a period of 120.21 min. The white dwarf primary has a magnetic field of B = 42+6-5 MG, and the secondary is a M3 dwarf. The system shows highly symmetric double peaked photometric modulation in the active state as well as in quiescence. These arise from a combination of cyclotron beaming and ellipsoidal modulation. The projected orbital velocity of the secondary is K2 = 390+-4 km/s. We place an upper limit of 830+-65 pc on the distance.

We report the discovery of a new cataclysmic variable MASTER OT J161700.81+620024.9 which is identical to the faint ROSAT X-ray source 1RXS J161659.5+620014. The object was observed in outbursts to 14.4m on 2012 Sep. 11 by MASTER-Tunka and to 14.3m o n 2013 Jan. 21/22 by MASTER-Kislovodsk, but was not detected by the routine search procedures. Analysis of the archival MASTER data and CRTS light curve shows the variability from 17.8m at quiescence to 14.3m in outbursts, confirming that the new variable is a dwarf nova. SDSS colors suggest a small contribution from the secondary component and are telling in favor of the short orbital period.
Results of photometric and spectroscopic investigations of the recently discovered disc cataclysmic variable star 1RXS J180834.7+101041 are presented. Emission spectra of the system show broad double peaked hydrogen and helium emission lines. Doppler maps for the hydrogen lines demonstrate strongly non-uniform emissivity distribution in the disc, similar to that found in IP Peg. It means that the system is a new cataclysmic variable with a spiral density wave in the disc. Masses of the components (M_WD = 0.8 +/- 0.22 M_sun and M_RD = 0.14 +/- 0.02 M_sun), and the orbit inclination (i = 78 +/- 1.5 deg) were estimated using the various well-known relations for cataclysmic variables.
We report seven new eclipse timings for the novalike variable 1RXS J064434.5+334451. An analysis of our data, along with all previously available timings (36 published and 16 unpublished), yields a best-fitting linear ephemeris of BJD$_mathrm{ecl} = 2,453,403.7611(2) + 0.269~374~43(2)~mathrm{E}$. We find a somewhat improved fit with a quadratic ephemeris given by: BJD$_mathrm{ecl} = 2,453,403.7598 + 0.269~374~87~mathrm{E} - 2.0times10^{-11}~mathrm{E}^2$, which suggests that the orbital period may be decreasing at a rate given by $dot P simeq -1.5times10^{-10}$.
We report the discovery of a new eclipsing polar, CRTS J035010.7+323230 (hereafter CRTS J0350+3232). We identified this cataclysmic variable (CV) candidate as a possible polar from its multi-year Catalina Real-Time Transient Survey (CRTS) optical lig ht curve. Photometric monitoring of 22 eclipses in 2015 and 2017 was performed with the 2.1-m Otto Struve Telescope at McDonald Observatory. We derive an unambiguous high-precision ephemeris. Strong evidence that CRTS J0350+3232 is a polar comes from optical spectroscopy obtained over a complete orbital cycle using the Apache Point Observatory 3.5-m telescope. High velocity Balmer and He II $lambda$4686{AA} emission line equivalent width ratios, structures, and variations are typical of polars and are modulated at the same period, 2.37-hrs (142.3-min), as the eclipse to within uncertainties. The spectral energy distribution and luminosity is found to be comparable to that of AM Herculis. Pre-eclipse dips in the light curve show evidence for stream accretion. We derive the following tentative binary and stellar parameters assuming a helium composition white dwarf and a companion mass of 0.2 M$_{odot}$: inclination i = 74.68$^{o}$ ${pm}$ 0.03$^{o}$, semi-major axis a = 0.942 ${pm}$ 0.024 R$_{odot}$, and masses and radii of the white dwarf and companion respectively: M$_{1}$ = 0.948 $^{+0.006}_{-0.012}$ M$_{odot}$, R$_{1}$ = 0.00830 $^{+0.00012}_{-0.00006}$ R$_{odot}$, R$_{2}$ = 0.249 ${pm}$ 0.002 R$_{odot}$. As a relatively bright (V $sim$ 17-19 mag), eclipsing, period-gap polar, CRTS J0350+3232 will remain an important laboratory for the study of accretion and angular momentum evolution in polars.

We present the results of our optical identification of the X-ray source IGR J16547-1916 detected by the INTEGRAL observatory during a deep all-sky survey. Analysis of the spectroscopic data from the SWIFT and INTEGRAL observatories in the X-ray ener gy band and from the BTA (Special Astrophysical Observatory) telescope in the optical band has shown that the source is most likely an intermediate polar -- an accreting white dwarf with the mass of M~0.85 M_Sun in a low-mass binary system. Subsequent studies of the objects rapid variability with the RTT-150 telescope have confirmed this conclusion by revealing periodic pulsations of its optical emission with a period of ~550 s.
