HT Cas - eclipsing dwarf nova during its superoutburst in 2010 [PDF]
We present results of a world-wide observing campaign of the eclipsing dwarf nova - HT Cas during its superoutburst in November 2010. Using collected data we were able to conduct analysis of the light curves and we calculated $O-C$ diagrams.

Orbital period changes and the higher-order multiplicity fraction amongst SuperWASP eclipsing binaries [PDF]
Orbital period changes of binary stars may be caused by the presence of a third massive body in the system. Here we have searched the archive of the Wide Angle Search for Planets (SuperWASP) project for evidence of period variations in 13 927 eclipsing ...

Orbital period decay of compact black hole X-ray binaries: the influence of circumbinary disks? [PDF]
Recently, compact black hole X-ray binaries XTE J 1118+480 and A0620-00 have been reported to be experiencing a fast orbital period decay, which is two orders of magnitude higher than expected with gravitational wave radiation.

X-Ray Eclipse Timing in the LMXB EXO0748-676
Orbital period changes are an important diagnostic for understanding low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) accretion-induced angular momentum exchange and overall system evolution. We present our most recent results for the eclipse timing of the LMXB EXO0748-676.

Period Change of W UMa Type Contact Binary AB And [PDF]
The CCD photometric observations of W UMa-type eclipsing binary AB And were made from September 1994 to October 1996. New four primary minimum times were obtained form these observations.

Evidence for a very slow X-ray pulsar in 2S0114+650 from RXTE All-Sky Monitor Observations
Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) All-Sky Monitor (ASM) observations of the X-ray binary 2S0114+650 show modulations at periods close to both the optically derived orbital period (11.591 days) and proposed pulse period (~ 2.7 hr). The pulse period shows

Level spacings and periodic orbits [PDF]
Starting from a semiclassical quantization condition based on the trace formula, we derive a periodic-orbit formula for the distribution of spacings of eigenvalues with k intermediate levels. Numerical tests verify the validity of this representation for the nearest-neighbor level spacing (k=0). In a second part, we present an asymptotic evaluation for

Long-term photometry of the eclipsing dwarf nova V893 Scorpii - Orbital period, oscillations, and a possible giant planet [PDF]
The cataclysmic variable V893 Sco is an eclipsing dwarf nova which, apart from outbursts with comparatively low amplitudes, exhibits a particularly strong variability during quiescence on timescales of days to seconds.The present study aims to update the

TV Cassiopeiae with Chandra and XMM–Newton X-ray Observations
TV Cassiopeia (TV Cas) is a well-known eclipsing Algol-type binary comprising a B9V primary and F7 IV secondary in an orbit with a period of 1.81 days, together with a purported low-mass companion in a wide orbit.
