High-Resolution optical observations of Extreme-Ultraviolet-selected active late-type stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present high-resolution optical spectra of EUV-selected late-type stars. We have detected seven new spectroscopic binaries, including a pair of F stars and an RS Canum Venaticorum candidate. Many of the stars in our sample show remarkable H?

Models of AM Canum Venaticorum Star Outbursts [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2012
Context. Outbursting AM CVn stars exhibit outbursts similar to those observed in different types of dwarf novae. Their light-curves combine the characteristic features of SU UMa, ER UMa, Z Cam, and WZ Sge-type systems but also show a variety of properties never observed in dwarf novae.

The Quiescent Spectrum of the AM Canum Venaticorum Star CP Eridani [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2001
We used the 6.5 m Multiple Mirror Telescope to obtain a spectrum of the AM Canum Venaticorum star CP Eridani in quiescence. The spectrum is dominated by He I emission lines, which are clearly double-peaked with a peak-to-peak separation of ~1900 km s-1.

The AM canum venaticorum stars

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1995
The photometric and spectroscopic properties of the six known AM CVn stars are reviewed. This gives support to the idea that they are helium-transferring double degenerate binaries with orbital periods in the range 1000-3000 s. The photometric variations arise predominantly from the same ‘superhump’ phenomenon that is seen in superoutbursts of the SU ...

Effects of Irradiation on the Secondary Star in a Tight Binary System, Exemplified by AM Canum Venaticorum

1997
Aiming at understanding the nature of the secondary of AM CVn, we investigate the effects of irradiation in a tight binary system. Observations of the spectrum place an upper boundary on the temperature of the secondary, while the observed light modulations limit the temperature difference between the illuminated and the unilluminated side.
