Extended Data Fig. 3: Long term optical variations in TW Pic.

From: An accreting white dwarf displaying fast transitional mode switching

Extended Data Fig. 3

Cycle 1 and Cycle 3 TESS data (grey points) overlaid onto the long term ASAS-SN V-band (magenta points) and g-band (green points) photometry. TW Pic shows evidence for slow (≈100 days) changes in its mass transfer rate from V-band and g-band ASAS-SN observations. The rapid mode transitions are only observed in g-band ASAS-SN data (around day 1800) and during Cycle 3 TESS observations.
