Description

We present a detailed study of V627 Pegasi, a short-period dwarf nova of the WZ Sge-type exhibiting some peculiar behavior. Our analysis is based on multi-epoch time-resolved spectroscopy complemented by photometric observations. The dataset includes observations from the Hubble Space Telescope, the Very Large Telescope of the European Southern Observatory, and the Nordic Optical Telescope. The combination of archival and newly obtained data provides a comprehensive, long-term view of this system. Although it has been previously studied, its fundamental parameters and physical properties remain poorly constrained, and its accretion disk displays behavior not fully explained by current theoretical models. The system has exhibited several outbursts reported in the literature, and we compile all available observations to present its long-term evolution, introduce new measurements, and discuss its evolutionary state.
