Scientific paper

Extended photometric observations of CN Ori have been carried out in December 1981 during 14 of 16 consecutive nights. Two eruptions and the minimum stage in between were covered. The lightcurves show humplike variations with two periods of 0.1631 d and 0.1595 d, the longer one being the orbital period. The amplitude of the orbital hump does not vary considerably during the observations. This is shown to be an argument in favor of the Osaki model for dwarf nova outbursts. System parameters of CN Ori are estimated using the orbital period and high frequency oscillation periods.
