Scientific paper

We report on Walraven photometry obtained during July/August 1988 of the cataclysmic variables V2051 Oph, HL Aqr, V603 Aql, VY Scl, WW Cet, V3885 Sgr, V426 Oph and BV Cen, and show a representative selection of light curves for them. We present the results of a search for periodicity in these light curves, and describe their colour behaviour. The eclipse times of V2051 Oph are consistent with the known eclipse ephemeris for this source. For V603 Aql we find two possible photometric periods close to the orbital (spectroscopic) period, the shortest of which is consistent with the results of Patterson and Richman. BV Cen shows a double-waved orbital light curve, whose amplitude is consistent with that expected for ellipsoidal variations at the known system parameters.
