ASASSN-V J205543.90+240033.5 has been suggested to be a white dwarf pulsar by Kato (2021, arXiv:2108.09060). We obtained time-resolved photometry and identified the orbital and spin periods to be 0.523490(1) d and 0.00678591(1) d = 9.77 min, respectively. These values strengthen the similarity of this object with AR Sco. We estimated that the strength of the spin pulse is 3.6 times smaller than in AR Sco.

The merger of close double white dwarfs (CDWDs) is one of the favourite evolutionary channels for producing Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia). Unfortunately, current theories of the evolution and formation of CDWDs are still poorly constrained and have seve
ral serious uncertainties, which affect the predicted SN Ia rates. Moreover, current observational constraints on this evolutionary pathway for SN Ia mainly rely on only 18 double-lined and/or eclipsing CDWDs with measured orbital and stellar parameters for both white dwarfs. In this paper we present the orbital periods and the individual masses of three new double-lined CDWDs, derived using a new method. This method employs mass ratios, the Halpha core ratios and spectral model-fitting to constrain the masses of the components of the pair. The three CDWDs are WD0028-474 (Porb=9.350 +- 0.007 hours, M1=0.60 +- 0.06 Msun, M2=0.45 +- 0.04 Msun), HE0410-1137 (Porb = 12.208 +- 0.008 hours, M1= 0.51 +- 0.04 Msun, M2= 0.39 +- 0.03 Msun) and SDSSJ031813.25-010711.7 (Porb = 45.908 +- 0.006 hours, among the longest period systems, M1= 0.40 +- 0.05 Msun, M2= 0.49 +- 0.05 Msun). While the three systems studied here will merge in timescales longer than the Hubble time and are expected to become single massive (>~0.9 Msun) white dwarfs rather than exploding as SN Ia, increasing the small sample of CDWDs with determined stellar parameters is crucial for a better overall understanding of their evolution.
During July 2009 we observed the first confirmed superoutburst of the eclipsing dwarf nova SDSS J150240.98+333423.9 using CCD photometry. The outburst amplitude was at least 3.9 magnitudes and it lasted at least 16 days. Superhumps having up to 0.35
peak-to-peak amplitude were present during the outburst, thereby establishing it to be a member of the SU UMa family. The mean superhump period during the first 4 days of the outburst was Psh = 0.06028(19) d, although it increased during the outburst with dPsh/dt = + 2.8(1.0) x 10-4. The orbital period was measured as Porb = 0.05890946(5) d from times of eclipses measured during outburst and quiescence. Based on the mean superhump period, the superhump period excess was 0.023(3). The FWHM eclipse duration declined from a maximum of 10.5 min at the peak of the outburst to 3.5 min later in the outburst. The eclipse depth increased from ~0.9 mag to 2.1 mag over the same period. Eclipses in quiescence were 2.7 min in duration and 2.8 mag deep.
We report on our photometric observations of the 2016 superoutburst of ASASSN-16eg. This object showed a WZ Sge-type superoutburst with prominent early superhumps with a period of 0.075478(8) d and a post-superoutburst rebrightening. During the super
outburst plateau, it showed ordinary superhumps with a period of 0.077880(3) d and a period derivative of 10.6(1.1) $times$ 10$^{-5}$ in stage B. The orbital period ($P_{rm orb}$), which is almost identical with the period of early superhumps, is exceptionally long for a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova. The mass ratio ($q$ = $M_2/M_1$) estimated from the period of developing (stage A) superhumps is 0.166(2), which is also very large for a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova. This suggests that the 2:1 resonance can be reached in such high-$q$ systems, contrary to our expectation. Such conditions are considered to be achieved if the mass-transfer rate is much lower than those in typical SU UMa-type dwarf novae that have comparable orbital periods to ASASSN-16eg and a resultant accumulation of a large amount of matter on the disk is realized at the onset of an outburst. We examined other candidates of long-period WZ Sge-type dwarf novae for their supercycles, which are considered to reflect the mass-transfer rate, and found that V1251 Cyg and RZ Leo have longer supercycles than those of other WZ Sge-type dwarf novae. This result indicates that these long-period objects including ASASSN-16eg have a low mass-transfer rate in comparison to other WZ Sge-type dwarf novae.
The bright Nova Cygni 1975 is a rare nova on a magnetic white dwarf (WD). Later it was found to be an asynchronous polar, now called V1500 Cyg. Our multisite photometric campaign occurring 40 years post eruption covered 26-nights (2015-2017). The ref
lection effect from the heated donor has decreased, but still dominates the op- tical radiation with an amplitude ~1^m.5. The 0^m.3 residual reveals cyclotron emission and ellipsoidal variations. Mean brightness modulation from night-to-night is used to measure the 9.6-d spin-orbit beat period that is due to changing accretion geometry including magnetic pole-switching of the flow. By subtracting the orbital and beat frequencies, spin-phase dependent light curves are obtained. The amplitude and profile of the WD spin light curves track the cyclotron emitting accretion regions on the WD and they vary systematically with beat phase. A weak intermittent signal at 0.137613-d is likely the spin period, which is 1.73(1) min shorter than the orbital period. The O-C diagram of light curve maxima displays phase jumps every one-half beat period, a characteristic of asynchronous polars. The first jump we interpret as pole switching between regions separated by 180 deg. Then the spot drifts during ~0.1 beat phase before undergoing a second phase jump between spots separated by less than 180 deg. We trace the cooling of the still hot WD as revealed by the irradiated companion. The post nova evolution and spin-orbit asynchronism of V1500 Cyg continues to be a powerful laboratory for accretion flows onto magnetic white dwarfs.
Many characteristics of dwarf carbon stars are broadly consistent with a binary origin, including mass transfer from an evolved companion. While the population overall appears to have old-disc or halo kinematics, roughly 2$,$per cent of these stars e
xhibit H$alpha$ emission, which in low-mass main-sequence stars is generally associated with rotation and relative youth. Its presence in an older population therefore suggests either irradiation or spin-up. This study presents time-series analyses of photometric and radial-velocity data for seven dwarf carbon stars with H$alpha$ emission. All are shown to have photometric periods in the range 0.2--5.2$,$d, and orbital periods of similar length, consistent with tidal synchronisation. It is hypothesised that dwarf carbon stars with emission lines are the result of close-binary evolution, indicating that low-mass, metal-weak or metal-poor stars can accrete substantial material prior to entering a common-envelope phase.
