Disc–magnetosphere interactions in cataclysmic variable stars [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractI review, from an observational perspective, the interactions of accretion discs with magnetic fields in cataclysmic variable stars. I start with systems where the accretion flows via a stream, and discuss the circumstances in which the stream forms into an accretion disc, pointing to stars which are close to this transition.

Mass Determinations of Cataclysmic Variables [PDF]
, 2013 Cataclysmic variables (CVs) are a class of closely interacting binary system that undergo mass transfer from a Roche lobe filling secondary star to a white dwarf primary star, usually via a gas stream and an accretion disc.

Orbital periods of cataclysmic variables identified by the SDSS. VII, Four new eclipsing systems [PDF]
, 2010 We present photometry of nine cataclysmic variable stars identified by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, aimed at measuring the orbital periods of these systems. Four of these objects show deep eclipses, from which we measure their orbital periods. The light

The component masses of the cataclysmic variable V347 Puppis [PDF]
, 2005 We present time-resolved spectroscopy and photometry of the double-lined eclipsing cataclysmic variable V347 Pup (=LB 1800). There is evidence of irradiation on the inner hemisphere of the secondary star, which we correct for using a model to give a ...

Imaging the Secondary Stars in Cataclysmic Variables [PDF]
, 2001 The secondary, Roche-lobe filling stars in cataclysmic variables (CVs) are key to our understanding of the origin, evolution and behaviour of this class of interacting binary. We review the basic properties of the secondary stars in CVs and the observational and analysis methods required to detect them.

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The spatial distribution, Galactic model parameters, and luminosity function of cataclysmic variables (CVs) are established using reestimated trigonometric parallaxes from Gaia DR3.

Indirect Imaging of Cataclysmic Variable Stars [PDF]
, 2022 Kataklysmische veränderliche Sterne (CVs) sind kompakte Doppelsterne, die aus einem weißen Zwerg, einem späten Hauptreihenstern und einer Akkretionsstruktur bestehen. Die scheinbare Ausdehnung der Objekte ist wegen der großen Entfernung zu klein, um direkte räumlich aufgelöste Abbildungen aufzunehmen.

K-band spectroscopy of pre-cataclysmic variables [PDF]
, 2007 Aims. There exists now substantial evidence for abundance anomalies in a number of cataclysmic variables (CVs), indicating that the photosphere of the secondary star incorporates thermonuclear processed material. However, the spectral energy distribution

THE EVOLUTION OF CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES AS REVEALED BY THEIR DONOR STARS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2011 ABSTRACT We present an attempt to reconstruct the complete evolutionary path followed by cataclysmic variables (CVs), based on the observed mass–radius relationship of their donor stars. Along the way, we update the semi-empirical CV donor sequence presented previously by one of

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 AH Her is a Z Cam-type dwarf nova with an orbital period of ∼0.258 days. Dwarf nova oscillations and long-period dwarf nova oscillations have been detected, but no quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) and negative superhumps (NSHs) have been found.
