Gas flow in cataclysmic variable stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1975
A numerical hydrodynamic scheme, applicable to gas flow in binary stars, is presented which incorporates the effects of pressure and gravitational forces, radiative cooling, and shock formation. The method is used to study gas flow originating from Roche lobe overflow through the inner Lagrangian point, L$sub 1$, in a binary star modeled to resemble ...

Overwinter gains in body fat challenge assumptions about winter nutrition in northern ungulates

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Animals in northern environments contend with seasonally variable resources and have evolved life histories to cope with the flush of nutrients in summer and scarcity in winter. Ungulates cope with seasonal variation in resources by accreting fat stores when resources are plentiful during the growing season and then mobilizing these stores to ...

The AH Pictoris Syndrome: Continuous Trains of Stunted Outbursts in Novalike Variables

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Novalike variables are a subgroup of cataclysmic variables (CVs) that—unlike dwarf novae—do not exhibit strong brightenings in their long-term light curves.

Development of a Period Analysis Algorithm for Detecting Variable Stars in Time-Series Observational Data

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019
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.

Spectroscopically Identified Cataclysmic Variables from the LAMOST Survey. II. Period Estimates

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We examine a sample of 340 cataclysmic variables (CVs) from the latest data release of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) survey, along with 18 objects that are newly classified as CVs.

Present‐Day Thermal State and Surface Heat Flux of the Moon

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The concentration of volcanic material and Heat‐Producing Elements (HPE) on the lunar nearside surface suggests an asymmetry of interior properties and thermal history between the two hemispheres. However, the distribution of HPE beneath the surface and the processes that led to their potential enrichment on the nearside remain poorly ...

Spectroscopic Follow-up on Potential Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
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.

Orbital Period Variations in HT Cas: Evidence for Additional Angular Momentum Loss and a High-eccentricity Giant Planet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a timing study of the short-period eclipsing cataclysmic variable (CV) HT Cas. Based on new eclipse times derived from our photometric monitoring and archival optical data, combined with historical timings, spanning ∼42 yr, we detect a secular

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.
