Using TESS we are doing a systematic study of outbursting AM~CVn systems to place some limits on the current outbursts models. We present the TESS light curve (LC) for 9 AM~CVns showing both superoutbursts (SO) and normal outbursts (NO). The continuous coverage of the outbursts with TESS allows us to place stringent limits on the duration and structures of the SO and the NO. We present evidence that in at least some of the systems enhanced mass transfer (EMT) has to be taken into account to explain the observed LC of the SO and rebrighthening phase after the SO. For others, the colour evolution from simultaneous observations in $g$ and $r$ with ZTF differs from previously reported color evolution of longer period AM~CVns where EMT is responsible for the SO. We also find that due to the lack of sufficiently high cadence coverage many of the duration might have been overestimated in previous ground-based surveys and report the SO duration for 6 AM~CVns. We also found that precursors are a common feature of SO in AM~CVns and are seen in the LC of 5 of the 6 reported SO. Finally with the 10-minute and 2-minute cadence LC from TESS also allowed us to find two new candidates orbital periods of AM~CVns, both of which are in reasonably good agreement with the predictions for their periods based on their past outburst histories.
We present the results of a two and a half year optical photometric monitoring programme covering 16 AM CVn binaries using the Liverpool Telescope on La Palma. We detected outbursts in seven systems, one of which (SDSS J0129) was seen in outburst for
We consider initial stage of the evolution of AM CVn type stars with white dwarf donors, which is accompanied by thermonuclear explosions in the layer of accreted He. It is shown that the accretion never results in detonation of He and accretors in A
We report on the discovery of a dichotomy in the behavior of outbursts in ultracompact accreting white dwarf binaries (AM CVns), using multiwavelength observations of the new AM CVn system ASASSN-21au which has a period of ~58 min. The binary showed
We present optical and X-ray observations of two tidally distorted, extremely low-mass white dwarfs (WDs) with massive companions. There is no evidence of neutron stars in our Chandra and XMM observations of these objects. SDSS J075141.18$-$014120.9
We report the discovery of a one magnitude increase in the optical brightness of the 59.63 minute orbital period AM CVn binary SDSS J113732.32+405458.3. Public $g$, $r$, and $i$ band data from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) exhibit a decline ove
