Increasing supercycle lengths of active SU UMa-type dwarf novae

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present observational evidence that supercycle lengths of the most active SU UMa-type stars are increasing during the past decades. We analysed a large number of photometric measurements from available archives and found that this effect is generic for this class of stars, independently of their evolutionary status. This finding is in agreement with previous predictions and the most recent work of Patterson et al. (2012) on BK Lyn.
