W Crv: the shortest-period Algol with non-degenerate components? [PDF]
Radial velocity data for both components of W Crv are presented. In spite of providing full radial-velocity information, the new data are not sufficient to establish the configuration of this important system because of large seasonal light-curve variations which prevent a combined light-curve/radial-velocity solution.

On the formation of TW Crv optical radiation
© 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.We present the analysis of the optical radiation of the young pre-cataclysmic variable TW Crv. Spectroscopic and photometric observations were obtained at the SAO RAS 6-m BTA telescope and at the Russian-Turkish RTT-150 telescope. The light curves of the system posses nearly sinusoidal shapes with the amplitudes of Δm >
