| Abstract: | The cataclysmic star RX And was observed in the states standstill and quiescence. They differed not only in the light level but in the type of variations around this level. The standstill observed by us turned out quite near to the maximum light and its duration was unusually long. The energy distribution of RX And at the standstill seemed similar to the spectrum of an accretion disk. Two variabilities with periods 3 h 43 min and 1 h 26 min were found at the standstill but only the second of them was present at quiescence too. The star did not show light variability with the spectroscopic period. We tried to interpret some of the results by the supposition that the Z Cam-stars are an intermediate subtype of the cataclysmic stars evolving from UX UMa-subtype to U Gem-subtype and that probably RX And presents a pattern of Z Cam-star that is very near to the U Gem-subtype. |
