Scientific paper

We report our investigation of the flickering variability of the cataclysmic variable V425 Cas on the basis of observations in 5 bands (UBVR_cI_c). We find for the flickering source a temperature T_{fl} ≈ 12000 K, and a radius r ˜ 0.05 -0.10 R_&sun; . We analyze the flickering amplitude (Δ F) and search for a relation with the mean flux (F_{av}). Using all five bands, we find that Δ F ∝ F_{av}^k, where k=1.22 ± 0.12. The value is more similar to that of the symbiotic stars CH Cyg and T CrB, than to that of the cataclysmic varaibale KR Aur.
