Faint Thermonuclear Supernovae from AM Canum Venaticorum Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Helium that accretes onto a carbon/oxygen white dwarf in double white dwarf AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) binaries undergoes unstable thermonuclear flashes when the orbital period is in the 3.5-25 minute range.

The AM Canum Venaticorum binary SDSS J173047.59+554518.5 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) binaries are a rare group of hydrogen-deficient, ultrashort period, mass-transferring white dwarf binaries and are possible progenitors of Type Ia supernovae.

Time Series Energy Production in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Accretion Disks: Superhumps in the AM Canum Venaticorum Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1998
The energy production time series of our purely hydrodynamic accretion disk simulations display remarkable similarities with the observed light curves of dwarf novae superhumps in general and the AM CVn stars in particular. The superhump period excess as a function of mass ratio agrees well with earlier theoretical and numerical results, and the ...

Orbital Period Increase in ES Ceti

open access: yes, 2022
We report a long-term study of the eclipse times in the 10-minute helium binary ES Ceti. The binary period increases rapidly, with P/P-dot = 6.2x10^6 yr.

The first eclipsing binary catalogue from the MOA-II data base

open access: yes, 2017
We present the first catalogue of eclipsing binaries in twoMOA (Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics) fields towards the Galactic bulge, in which over 8000 candidates,mostly contact and semidetached binaries of periods < 1 d, were identified.

A Solar Analog Model for Decrease in Far Ultraviolet Irradiance Under a Grand Minimum

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Solar analog field stars having a range of magnetic activity can provide an estimate of solar spectral irradiance (SSI) variability relevant to understanding the Sun's influence on terrestrial climate. This approach is particularly useful for far ultraviolet (FUV) irradiance that cannot be observed from the Earth surface.

Revisiting Variable Stars Toward the Globular Cluster NGC 6496 With ATLAS and Gaia Photometry

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 7, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We revisit 13 variable stars in the field of the metal‐rich globular cluster NGC 6496, discovered by Abbas et al. (2015; Astronomical Journal 149:40) (hereafter referred to as “MA15”) via time‐series data, spanning 2 years. We improve upon the MA15 characterization of the variables using ATLAS time‐series photometry data, spanning 8 years, in ...
