We report extensive photometry of the dwarf nova V419 Lyr throughout its 2006 July superoutburst till quiescence. The superoutburst with amplitude of ~3.5 magnitude lasted at least 15 days and was characterized by the presence of clear superhumps with a mean period of Psh=0.089985(58) days (129.58+-0.08 min). According to the Stolz-Schoembs relation, this indicates that the orbital period of the binary should be around 0.086 days i.e. within the period gap. During the superoutburst the superhump period was decreasing with the rate of dotP/Psh=-24.8(2.2)*10^-5, which is one of the highest values ever observed in SU UMa systems. At the end of the plateau phase, the superhump period stabilized at a value of 0.08983(8) days. The superhump amplitude decreased from 0.3 mag at the beginning of the superoutburst to 0.1 mag at its end. In the case of V419 Lyr we have not observed clear secondary humps, which seems to be typical for long period systems.

We report extensive photometry of the frequently outbursting dwarf nova RZ Leo Minoris. During two seasons of observations we detected 12 superoutbursts and 7 normal outbursts. The V magnitude of the star varied in range from 16.5 to 13.9 mag. The su peroutbursts occur quite regularly flashing every 19.07(4) days and lasting slightly over 10 days. The average interval between two successive normal outbursts is 4.027(3) days. The mean superhump period observed during the superoutbursts is 0.059396(4) days (85.530(6) min). The period of the superhumps was constant except for one superoutburst when it increased with a rate of $dot P/P_{rm sh} = 7.6(1.9)cdot 10^{-5}$. Our observations indicate that RZ LMi goes into long intervals of showing permanent superhumps which are observed both in superoutbursts and quiescence. This may indicate that decoupling of thermal and tidal instabilities play important role in ER UMa systems. No periodic light variations which can be connected with orbital period of the binary were seen, thus the mass ratio and evolutionary status of RZ LMi are still unknown.
We report extensive photometry of frequently outbursting dwarf nova IX Draconis. During five months of observations the star went into three superoutbursts and seven ordinary outbursts. This allowed us to determine its supercycle and cycle lengths as equal to 54 +/- 1 and 3.1 +/- 0.1 days, respectively. During the Sep 2003 superoutburst, which had the best observational coverage, IX Dra displayed clear superhumps with a period of Psh=0.066968(17) days. This period was constant during the whole superoutburst. Another period, which was clearly present in the light curve of IX Dra in superoutburst, had a value of 0.06646(6) days and we interpret it as the orbital period of the binary. Thus IX Dra is the first SU UMa star showing orbital modulation during the entire superoutburst. The beat between these two periods is the main cause of an unusual phase reversal of superhumps - a phenomenon which was previously observed in ER UMa. If our interpretation of the second periodicity is correct, IX Dra has an extremely low period excess $epsilon$ equal to only 0.76% +/- 0.03%. This implies very low mass ratio q=0.035 +/- 0.003, which strongly suggests that the system contains a brown dwarf-like degenerate secondary of mass ~0.03 Mo and that IX Dra is the most evolved dwarf nova known. Such a very low mass ratio results in the outer edge of the accretion disk reaching 80% of the distance between the components of the system. In turn, this allows the disk particles to enter a 2:1 resonance and leads to the appearance of the orbital period in the light curve of the entire superoutburst.The high level of activity and brightness of IX Dra indicate that very old cataclysmic variables go through episodes of increased activity leading to loss of angular momentum through mass loss from the system.
Results of the CCD observations of CzeV404 Her are displayed. During the season of June-August 2014 we detected one outburst and one superoutburst of the star. Clear superhumps with the period of P_sh=0.10472(2) days were observed. The superhump peri od was decreasing with a high value of P_dot=-2.43(8) x 10^(-4). For 17 eclipses, we calculated an orbital period with the value of P_orb=0.0980203(6) days which indicates that CzeV404 Her belongs to period gap objects and it is the longest orbital period eclipsing SU UMa star. Based on superhump and orbital period determinations, the period excess 6.8 % +/- 0.02 % and the mass ratio q ~ 0.32 of the system were obtained.
The long-term behaviours of the pulsation and Blazhko periods of RR Lyr are investigated by means of Kepler and ground-based observations. The difficulties in detecting additional modes in the Cepheids monitored with CoRoT are discussed.
We present the results of CCD UBVRI observations of the open cluster NGC 6811 obtained on 18th July 2012 with the 1m telescope at the TUB.ITAK National Observatory (TUG). Using these photometric results, we determine the structural and astrophysical parameters of the cluster. The mean photometric uncertainties are better than 0.02 mag in the V magnitude and B-V, V-R, and V-I colour indices to about 0.03 mag for U-B among stars brighter than magnitude V=18. Cluster member stars were separated from the field stars using the Galaxia model of Sharma et al. (2011) together with other techniques. The core radius of the cluster is found to be $r_{c}$=3.60 arcmin. The astrophysical parameters were determined simultaneously via Bayesian statistics using the colour-magnitude diagrams V versus B-V, V versus V-I, V versus V-R, and V versus R-I of the cluster. The resulting most likely parameters were further confirmed using independent methods, removing any possible degeneracies. The colour excess, distance modulus, metallicity and the age of the cluster are determined simultaneously as E(B-V)=0.05$pm$0.01 mag, $mu=10.06pm0.08$ mag, [M/H]=-0.10$pm$0.01 dex and t=1.00$pm$0.05 Gyr, respectively. Distances of five red clump stars which were found to be members of the cluster further confirm our distance estimation.
