Scientific paper

Photometry of the dwarf nova UZ Serpentis, obtained during three consecutive days near minimum, shows an orbital modulation with a period of 0.1730 days. The V light curve presents sinusoidal variations with an amplitude of 0.26 mag, while at B wavelengths they have a larger amplitude of 0.4 mag. The light curves can be explained based on the asymmetric contribution of the hot spot in the outer parts of the accretion disc.
