Discovery of a Dwarf Nova Breaking the Standard Sequence of Compact Binary Evolution

Abstract We revealed that the dwarf nova 1RXS J232953.9+062814 is an SU UMa-type system with a superhump period of $ 66.774\pm 0.010 \,\mathrm{min}$. The short period strongly indicates that the orbital period of this object is below the period minimum of cataclysmic variables. The superhump period is $ 4.04\pm 0.02$% …
