- Title
ASASSN-14ho: Longest-period dwarf nova with multiple rebrightenings.
- Authors

- Abstract
The post-outburst rebrightening phenomenon in dwarf novae and X-ray novae is still one of the most challenging subjects for theories of accretion disks. It has been widely recognized that post-outburst rebrightenings are a key feature of WZ Sge-type dwarf novae, which predominantly have short (≲0.06 d) orbital periods. The author found four post-outburst rebrightenings in ASASSN-14ho during its 2014 outburst, whose orbital period was recently measured to be exceptionally long [0.24315(10) d]. Using the formal solution of the radial velocity study in the literature, this paper discusses the possibility that this object could be an SU UMa-type dwarf nova near the stability border of the 3 : 1 resonance, despite its exceptionally long orbital period. Such objects are considered to be produced if mass transfer occurs after the secondary has undergone significant nuclear evolution, and they may be hidden in a significant number of dwarf novae showing multiple post-outburst rebrightenings.
