Abstract

We present preliminary results of new spectroscopic observations of dwarf nova BZ UMa in quiescence. Fifty medium resolution spectra allow us to reproduce the radial velocity curve from the H α emission line. We confirm that BZ UMa shows extremely unusual emission lines profiles. Unlike the classical single or the double-peaked profiles usually observed in spectra of dwarf novae, emission lines of BZ UMa consist of at least five peaks.
