White Dwarfs in Cataclysmic Variables: An Update [PDF]
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 In this review, we summarize what is currently known about the surface temperatures of accreting white dwarfs in nonmagnetic and magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs) based upon synthetic spectral analyses of far ultraviolet data.

Cataclysmic Variables as Supernova Ia Progenitors [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2012 Although the identification of the progenitors of type Ia supernovae (SNeIa) remains controversial, it is generally accepted that they originate from binary star systems in which at least one component is a carbon-oxygen white dwarf (WD); those systems ...

White Dwarfs in Cataclysmic Variable Stars: Surface Temperatures and Evolution [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2012 A summary is presented of what is currently known about the surface temperatures of accreting white dwarfs (WDs) detected in non-magnetic and magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs) based upon synthetic spectral analyses of far ultraviolet data.

The Accreting White Dwarfs in Cataclysmic Variables
Galaxies, 2022 Accreting white dwarfs (WDs) in cataclysmic variables (CVs) provide crucial insights about the accretion of mass and angular momentum in all types of binaries, including accreting NSs and BHs.

Evolution and Outbursts of Cataclysmic Variables
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 Mass transfer and accretion are very important to understand the evolution and observational properties of cataclysmic variables (CVs). Due to the lack of an accretion disk, eclipsing profiles of polars are the best source to study the character of mass ...

The Magnetospheric Boundary in Cataclysmic Variables
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014 The magnetic cataclysmic variables (MCVs) present a wealth of observational diagnostics for studying accretion flows interacting with a magnetosphere. Spin-period pulsations from the rotation of the white dwarf are seen in optical light, in the UV and X ...
