Scientific paper

We propose to observe the quiescent nova CP Pup and the peculiar dwarf nova EY Cyg, that shows signatures of a past nova explosion. These two systems are known X-ray sources at low inclination, so they are ideal targets to study how accretion occurs. CP Pup has a short orbital period, while EY Cyg is a long period systems, allowing a useful comparison. Spectroscopy will be used to measure mdot and test theories of secular evolution, timing analysis will be used to localize and constrain the size of the emitting region.
