The AH Pictoris Syndrome: Continuous Trains of Stunted Outbursts in Novalike Variables
Novalike variables are a subgroup of cataclysmic variables (CVs) that—unlike dwarf novae—do not exhibit strong brightenings in their long-term light curves.

The purpose of this study was to develop a period analysis algorithm for detecting new variable stars in the time-series data observed by charge coupled device (CCD). We used the data from a variable star monitoring program of the CBNUO.

Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War
ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the

ASASSN-16dv: Superhumps in a Long-period X-Ray-luminous Dwarf Nova
Combining a long-term light curve, four-color rapid photometry, and spectroscopic and X-ray observations with a 27-day time base TESS light curve, we present the first dedicated study of ASASSN-16dv, detected as a transient in the All-Sky Automated ...

Abstract Since 2007, the European Union has devoted significant time and energy to the production and dissemination of new statistics designed to monitor social and environmental trends of various types. These initiatives have often been presented as part of a broader ‘beyond GDP agenda’, which challenges the centrality of economic growth, as measured ...

Spectroscopic Follow-up on Potential Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables
Spectroscopic observations of nine cataclysmic variables that have been postulated to contain magnetic white dwarfs were obtained to further characterize their classifications, orbital parameters, inclinations, and/or accretion properties.

Abstract This article develops a cultural political ecology approach to disarticulations and labour unrest. The reference point for analysis is a struggle at a Whirlpool factory in Naples that the company announced would close in 2019, six months after signing an agreement with the Italian government, including a multi‐million investment plan.

TESS Light Curves of Cataclysmic Variables. V. Improved or Corrected Orbital Periods of 53 Systems
The long and continuous high-time-resolution coverage of many stars by the Kepler and TESS space missions permit to explore periodic phenomena with a much higher precision than is possible with terrestrial observations.

The nautre of dwarf novae and related systems [PDF]
The high energy emissions from cataclysmic variables (interacting binary systems containing an accreting white dwarf) and the relationship of the high energy emission of these stars to their optical properties were investigated.

Erupting Cataclysmic Variable Stars in the Nearest Globular Cluster, NGC 6397: Intermediate Polars?
NGC 6397 is the closest globular cluster, and hence the ideal place to search for faint stellar populations such as cataclysmic variables (CVs). HST and Chandra observers have identified nine certain and likely CVs in this nearby cluster, including ...
