Abstract Negative superhumps (NSHs) are signals a few percent shorter than the orbital period of binary star and considered to originate from reverse precession tilted disk. Based on TESS photometry, we find nine new cataclysmic variable stars with NSHs. Three (ASAS J1420, TZ Per, V392 Hya) these similar AH Her still have NSHs during dwarf nova outbursts, NSH amplitude varies outburst. The variation in radius accretion disk partially explains this phenomenon. However, it does not explain...

Abstract TV Col is a long-period eclipsing intermediate polar (IP) prototype star for the negative superhump (NSH) system. We investigate eclipse minima, depth, and NSH amplitude based on TESS photometry. Using same analytical method as SDSS J081256.85+191157.8, we find periodic variations of O − C minima amplitudes with periods 3.939(25) days 3.907(30) days, respectively. The variation confirms that changes in response to tilted disk precession may be universal, which further evidence...

Abstract The merger of compact binary stars produces short gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs), involving channels such as neutron star–neutron star (BNS) and star–black hole (NS–BH). association between sGRB 170817A gravitational wave GW170817 provides reliable evidence for the BNS channel. Some speculations suggest that sGRBs with extended emission (EE) may represent another distinct population. offset is distance GRB sky localization host galaxy center. We compared distributions these two types...

Abstract Dwarf novae (DNe) are semidetached binaries, where a white dwarf accretes material from cool main-sequence companion via an accretion disk, and known for their intermittent outbursts, making them key systems studying physics. The accumulation of large survey data sets has challenged traditional models, which assumed that the disk remains hot cannot produce superoutbursts during standstill Z Camelopardalis (Z Cam)-type DN require mass ratio q = M 2 / 1 ≤ 0.25–0.33. Here we report...

ABSTRACT Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most intense explosions in Universe. GRBs with extended emission (GRBs EE) constitute a small subclass of GRBs. EE divided into EE-I and EE-II GRBs, according to Amati empirical relationship rather than duration. We test here if these two types GRB have different origins based on their luminosity function (and formation rate). Therefore, we use Lynden-Bell’s c− method investigate rate without any assumption. calculate For fitting can be written as...
