Photometry of the faint dwarf nova UZ Serpentis: detection of the orbital period.

J. Echevarría

Abstract

Observation photometrique de la nova naine UZ Ser a l'epoque de son minimum. La modulation orbitale a une periode de 0.1730 jours et l'amplitude des courbes de lumiere en bande B et V sont respectivement 0.4 et 0.26 magnitude. Un modele asymetrique de taches chaudes dans les parties exterieures du disque d'accretion permet d'expliquer les courbes de lumiere obtenues
