Abstract:
    Using 27 sets of new multiband photometry light curves acquired from
    our long-term photometric campaign carried out in the last 5yr and
    high-resolution spectroscopic data from seven nights, we analyzed the
    physical mechanisms of period variation, starspot cycle, optical
    flares, and chromospheric activities of the eclipsing binary DV Psc.
    Our updated O-C diagram covering a period of approximately 20yr shows
    an oscillation in its orbital period. This variations might be caused
    by a third body with an orbital period of 14.58±0.28yr. There are
    two active regions of starspots at longitude belts of about 90°
    and 270°. We obtained its starspot cycles with periods of
    3.60±0.03yr and 3.42±0.02yr at about 90° and 270°,
    respectively. Moreover, the magnitude difference of Max.I-Max.II shows
    cyclic oscillation of 5.15±0.01yr. During our decade long
    photometric campaign, we observed DV Psc a total of 326.4hr, detected
    18 outbursts (12 of them have never been reported) with flare energies
    in the range of (6.62-1106.85)x1024J. The slope of the relationship
    between the phase of the max flare and spots is 0.842 ±0.083,
    implying a correlation between spots and flares. We discovered
    evidence for a correlation between the rotation period and the
    activity cycle for the short-period eclipsing binaries. Our
    high-resolution spectroscopic observations of DV Psc show obvious
    emissions above continuum in the Hα line and small self-reversal
    emissions of the CaII IRT lines.
Description:
    We carried out our new multicolor CCD photometric campaign of DV Psc
    using a multitude of telescopes from Asia, North and South America,
    and Europe: the 85cm and 60cm telescopes located at Xinglong station
    of the National Astronomical Observatories of China (XL85T, XL60T, and
    NAOC); the 100cm telescope (YN100T) located at Yunnan Observatory in
    Kunming, China; the 91cm SARA (Southeastern Association for Research
    in Astronomy) telescope (KPT) located at the Kitt Peak National
    Observatory in Arizona, USA; the SARA 61cm telescope (CT) at the Cerro
    Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile; the 100cm SARA RM
    telescope (RMT) at the observatory del Roque de los Muchachos, La
    Palma, Spain; and the 95cm Holcomb telescope at the Holcomb
    Observatory (HT) on the Bulter University campus in Indianapolis,
    Indiana, USA. We observed DV Psc for 67 nights (about 326.4hr) from
    2013 November 20 to 2018 January 28 using the standard BVRI filters;
    the exposure times are 15-45s, 5-30s, 3-10s, and 1-7 s in BVRI
    filters, respectively.
    We listed the photometry observation log in Table 1.
    We obtained high-resolution spectra (HRS; R=49800) for DV Psc during
    seven nights (2017 January 3, 4, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 17) using the
    echelle spectrograph on the 2.16m telescope of NAOC.
