PublicationThe Wendelstein Calar Alto Pixellensing Project (WeCAPP): the M 31 nova catalogue
We present light curves from the novae detected in the long-term, M 31-monitoring WeCAPP project. The goal of WeCAPP is to constrain the compact dark matter...

PublicationTIC 378898110: A bright, short-period AM CVn binary in TESS
AM CVn-type systems are ultracompact, helium-accreting binary systems that are evolutionarily linked to the progenitors of thermonuclear supernovae and are...

PublicationTime-resolved photometry and spectroscopy of the new deeply-eclipsing SW Sextantis star HS 0728+6738
We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy and photometry, and far-ultraviolet spectroscopy of HS 0728+6738, a cataclysmic variable discovered in the Hamburg...

PublicationTime-resolved photometry of the nova remnants DM Gem, CP Lac, GI Mon, V400 Per, CT Ser and XX Tau
We present the first results of a photometric survey of poorly studied nova remnants in the Northern Hemisphere. The main results are as follows: DM Gem shows a...

PublicationTransient Heavy Element Absorption Systems in Novae: Episodic Mass Ejection from the Secondary Star
A high-resolution spectroscopic survey of post-outburst novae reveals short-lived heavy element absorption systems in a majority of novae near maximum light...

PublicationUltracool Subdwarfs: The Halo Population Down to the Substellar Limit
Ultracool subdwarfs are low luminosity, late-type M and L dwarfs that exhibit spectroscopic indications of subsolar metallicity and halo kinematics. Their...

PublicationUnveiling optical signatures of outflows in accreting white dwarfs
Accreting white dwarfs are known to show signatures of wind-type outflows in the ultraviolet. However, at optical wavelengths, wind detections have only been...

PublicationV348 Puppis: a new SW Sex star in the period gap
We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy and photometry of the nova-like cataclysmic variable V348 Puppis. The system displays the same spectroscopic...
