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 Hα 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.
