Theoretical Light-curve Models of the Symbiotic Nova CN Cha—Optical Flat Peak for 3 Yr

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
CN Cha is a slow symbiotic nova characterized by a 3 yr long optical flat peak followed by a rapid decline. We present theoretical light curves for CN Cha, based on hydrostatic approximation, and estimate the white-dwarf (WD) mass to be ∼0.6 M _☉ for a ...

Destructive Leadership in Public Crisis Management: Perceptions From Santa Catarina, Brazil, During the COVID‐19 Pandemic

open access: yesJournal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, Volume 34, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Although the study of destructive leadership is a growing field, the adverse behaviours of public leaders during crises, such as the COVID‐19 pandemic, remain largely underexplored in academic literature. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining participants' perceptions of destructive leadership behaviours in public crisis management ...

A spectrophotometric survey of cataclysmic variable stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1982
A sample of dwarf novae and other cataclysmic variable stars were observed using the multichannel spectrophotometer on the 5-m Hale reflector. A preliminary qualitative description of the continuum distributions is given and a discussion of the Balmer emission-line fluxes is made.

TESS Light Curves of Cataclysmic Variables. VI. Intermediate Polars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The long and (almost) continuous high-cadence light curves provided by the TESS space mission are ideally suited to study in detail brightness variations in stellar sources on the broad range of timescales between minutes and months.

Integrating and assessing metacommunity drivers of ecosystem function and resilience in benthic algal systems

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Photometric Analysis of the Cataclysmic Variable Star LT Eri

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
LT Eri is a long-period eclipsing cataclysmic variable star (CV). This study investigates its outbursts, negative superhumps (NSHs), tilted-disk precession, eclipse-depth variations, and observed minus calculated ( O – C ) behavior, using photometric ...

The K-band spectrum of the cataclysmic variable RXJ 0502.8+1624 (Tau 4)

open access: yes, 2005
We present the K-band spectrum of the cataclysmic variable RXJ 0502.8+1624 (Tau 4). The spectrum shows a broad, smooth hump, with no absorption lines from the secondary star visible.

Spectroscopy and Orbital Periods of Four Cataclysmic Variable Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We present spectroscopy and orbital periods Porb of four relatively little-studied cataclysmic variable stars. The stars and their periods are: AF Cam, Porb = 0.324(1) d (the daily cycle count is slightly ambiguous); V2069 Cyg (= RX J2123.7+4217), 0 ...

Evolution of Cataclysmic Variables with Binary-driven Mass Loss during Nova Eruptions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The discrepancies between observations and theoretical predictions of cataclysmic variables (CVs) suggest that there exists unknown angular-momentum-loss mechanism(s) besides magnetic braking and gravitational radiation.

Gravitational Radiation From Binary Systems With Time Varying Masses

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 8, August 2026.
We extend the standard approach pioneered in the works by Peters and Mathews to include the mass loss processes of the binary components, by obtaining the variations due to gravitational radiation of the main physical parameters. As an application of our results we consider gravitational radiation emission in binary magnetar systems.
