We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy and photometry of the nova-like cataclysmic variable V348 Puppis. The system displays the same spectroscopic behaviour as SW Sex stars, so we classify V348 Pup as a new member of the class. V348 Pup is the second SW Sex system (the first is V795 Herculis) which lies in the period gap. The spectra exhibit enhanced HeII 4686 emission, reminiscent of magnetic cataclysmic variables. The study of this emission line gives a primary velocity semi-amplitude of K1 ~= 100 km/s. We have also derived the system parameters, obtaining: M1 ~= 0.65 Msun, M2 ~= 0.20 Msun (q ~= 0.31), i ~= 80 deg and K2 ~= 323 km/s. The spectroscopic behaviour of V348 Pup is very similar to that of V795 Her, with the exception that V348 Pup shows deep eclipses. We have computed the ``0.5-absorption spectrum of both systems, obtaining spectra which resemble the absorption spectrum of a B0 V star. We propose that absorption in SW Sex systems can be produced by a vertically extended atmosphere which forms where the gas stream re-impacts the system, either at the accretion disc or at the white dwarfs magnetosphere (assuming a magnetic scenario).

Four newest CCD eclipse timings of the white dwarf for polar UZ Fornacis and Six updated CCD mid-eclipse times for SW Sex type nova-like V348 Puppis are obtained. The detailed O-C analyses for both CVs inside period gap are made. Orbital period incre
ases at a rate of $2.63(pm0.58)times10^{-11} s;s^{-1}$ for UZ Fornacis and of $5.8(pm1.9)times10^{-12} s;s^{-1}$ for V348 Puppis, respectively, are discovered in their new O-C diagrams. However, the conservative mass transfer from the secondary to the massive white dwarf cannot explain the observed orbital period increases for both CVs, which are regarded as part of modulations at longer periods. Moreover, the O-C diagram of UZ Fornacis shows a possible cyclical change with a period of $sim23.4(pm5.1)yr$. For explaining the observed cyclical period changes in UZ Fornacis, both mechanisms of magnetic activity cycles in the late-type secondary and the light travel-time effect are regarded as two probable causes. Not only does the modulation period 23.4yr obey the empirical correlation derived by cite{lan99}, but also the estimated fractional period change $Delta P/Psim7.3times10^{-7}$ displays a behavior similar to that of the CVs below the period gap. On the other hand, a calculation for the light travel-time effect implies that the tertiary component in UZ Fornacis may be a brown dwarf with a high confidence level, when the orbital inclination of the third body is larger than $16^{circ}$.
Context: We present a new study of the eclipsing cataclysmic variable CzeV404 Her (Porb = 0.098 d) that is located in the period gap. Aims: This report determines the origin of the object and the system parameters and probes the accretion flow struct
ure of the system. Methods: We conducted simultaneous time-resolved photometric and spectroscopic observations of CzeV404 Her. We applied our light-curve modelling techniques and the Doppler tomography method to determine the system parameters and analyse the structure of the accretion disk. Results: We found that the system has a massive white dwarf M_WD = 1.00(2) M_sun a mass ratio of q = 0.16, and a relatively hot secondary with an effective temperature T_2 = 4100(50) K. The system inclination is i = 78.8{deg}. The accretion disk spreads out to the tidal limitation radius and has an extended hot spot or line region. The hot spot or line is hotter than the remaining outer part of the disk in quiescence or in intermediate state, but does not stand out completely from the disk flux in (super)outbursts. Conclusions: We claim that this object represents a link between two distinct classes of SU UMa-type and SW Sex-type cataclysmic variables. The accretion flow structure in the disk corresponds to the SW Sex systems, but the physical conditions inside the disk fit the behaviour of SU UMa-type objects.
We report the detection of modulated circular polarization in V795 Her. The degree of polarization increases with wavelength and is modulated with a period of 19.54 min, which is very close to the reported optical QPO period. The modulation has a pea
k-to-peak amplitude of 0.12% in the U-band. The estimated magnetic field intensity is in the range 2-7 MG.
We report results of an extensive world-wide observing campaign devoted to the recently discovered dwarf nova SDSS J162520.29+120308.7 (SDSS J1625). The data were obtained during the July 2010 eruption of the star and in August and September 2010 whe
n the object was in quiescence. During the July 2010 superoutburst SDSS J1625 clearly displayed superhumps with a mean period of $P_{rm sh}=0.095942(17)$ days ($138.16 pm 0.02$ min) and a maximum amplitude reaching almost 0.4 mag. The superhump period was not stable, decreasing very rapidly at a rate of $dot P = -1.63(14)cdot 10^{-3}$ at the beginning of the superoutburst and increasing at a rate of $dot P = 2.81(20)cdot 10^{-4}$ in the middle phase. At the end of the superoutburst it stabilized around the value of $P_{rm sh}=0.09531(5)$ day. During the first twelve hours of the superoutburst a low-amplitude double wave modulation was observed whose properties are almost identical to early superhumps observed in WZ Sge stars. The period of early superhumps, the period of modulations observed temporarily in quiescence and the period derived from radial velocity variations are the same within measurement errors, allowing us to estimate the most probable orbital period of the binary to be $P_{rm orb}=0.09111(15)$ days ($131.20 pm 0.22$ min). This value clearly indicates that SDSS J1625 is another dwarf nova in the period gap. Knowledge of the orbital and superhump periods allows us to estimate the mass ratio of the system to be $qapprox 0.25$. This high value poses serious problems both for the thermal and tidal instability (TTI) model describing the behaviour of dwarf novae and for some models explaining the origin of early superhumps.
In AE Aqr, magnetic fields transfer energy and angular momentum from a rapidly spinning white dwarf to material in the gas stream from the companion star, with the effect of spinning down the white dwarf while flinging the gas stream material out of
the binary system. This magnetic propeller produces a host of observable signatures, chief among which are broad single-peaked flaring emission lines with phase-shifted orbital kinematics. SW Sex stars have accretion disks, but also broad single-peaked phase-shifted emission lines similar to those seen in AE Aqr. We propose that a magnetic propeller similar to that which operates in AE Aqr is also at work in SW Sex stars -- and to some extent in all nova-like systems. The propeller is anchored in the inner accretion disk, rather than or in addition to the white dwarf. Energy and angular momentum are thereby extracted from the inner disk and transferred to gas stream material flowing above the disk, which is consequently pitched out of the system. This provides a non-local dissipationless angular momentum extraction mechanism, which should result in cool inner disks with temperature profiles flatter than $Tpropto R^{-3/4}$, as observed in eclipse mapping studies of nova-like variables. The disk-anchored magnetic propeller model appears to explain qualitatively most if not all of the peculiar features of the SW Sex syndrome.
