An Equipotential Disk Model with Irradiation for Nova-like Variables
The Astrophysical JournalThe reflection effect is here incorporated within an earlier analytic binary system light- and velocity-curve model that includes a circumstellar equipotential disk.

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesA program of long-term ground-based photometric monitoring of 134 old novae and novalike cataclysmic variables (CVs) has been concluded. In this paper, we display, analyze, and discuss the light curves of 33 of these targets, which have shown “stunted ...

Detection of Transitions between Dwarf Nova Outbursts, Standstills, and IW And–type Cycles
The Astrophysical JournalIW And–type objects represent a rare and intriguing subclass of cataclysmic variables that challenge the classical disk instability model. Due to their long timescales, often lasting several months, observed samples are scarce, leaving the physics of ...

An X-Ray View of the Cataclysmic Variable V902 Mon: Discovery of an X-Ray Eclipse
The Astrophysical JournalV902 Mon is one of a few eclipsing intermediate polars (IPs) and shows deep eclipses in the optical lightcurves. The presence of a strong Fe K α fluorescence line in its X-ray spectrum and its low X-ray flux compared to other IPs suggests significant ...

Tilted Disk Precession and Negative Superhumps in HS 2325+8205: A Multiwindow Analysis
The Astrophysical JournalTilted disk precession exists in different objects. Negative superhumps (NSHs) in cataclysmic variable stars are believed to arise from the interaction between the reverse precession of a tilted disk and the streams from the secondary star.

A New IW And-type Star: Karachurin 12 with Tilted Disks and Diverse Cycles
The Astrophysical JournalThe IW And-type phenomenon in cataclysmic variables presents a significant challenge to the accretion disk instability model. Using photometric data from the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae, the Zwicky Transient Facility, and the Transiting ...
