Description

Post common-envelope binaries (PCEBs) are known as one of the end products of the complex common-envelope process. These systems typically consist of white dwarf star with a low mass companion. While most of PCEBs usually have short orbital periods of a few hours, some systems are found to be in long (>1 day) period. In this work, we present the preliminary result of our follow-up photometric observation on SDSS J214140.43+050730.0 by using the 2.4m Thai National Telescope with ULTRASPEC instrument. The system is a new cataclysmic variables (CVs) which is listed among the recently found white dwarf main sequence binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The observation for SDSS J2141+0507 is done on 9th, 22nd, 24th and 25th December 2014 in the SDSS $g^{\prime}$ filter, $KG5^{\prime}$ filter, $r^{\prime}$ filter and $i^{\prime}$ filter, respectively. Our preliminary result on SDSS J2141+0507 show that T0(HJD) and an orbital period are 2457014.00774986 and 0.05469 days, respectively.
