TESS Light Curves of Cataclysmic Variables. VI. Intermediate Polars
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesThe 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.

The Golden Age of Cataclysmic Variables and Related Objects - II Concluding Address
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 Before to conclude officially this workshop — far from me the idea to attempt some concluding remarks already dealt at the meeting with various burning by Joseph Patterson, Mariko Kato, Dmitry Bisikalo, and Rene Hudec —, I would like to comment few ...

The inter-outburst behavior of cataclysmic variables [PDF]
Existing International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) and American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO) archive data was used to accomplish a large scale study of what happens to the ultraviolet flux of accretion disk systems during the quiescent ...

Multifrequency Behaviour of Polars
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 Cataclysmic variables emit over a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum. In this paper I will review observations of polars in relevant passbands obtained during the last decade and will discuss their diagnostical potential to access the physics ...

The boundary layer in cataclysmic variables [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 1987 AbstractRecent development in the theory of the boundary layer is considered. The model for the formation of a corona above the WD is discussed in some detail.The interaction of the boundary layer with the stellar interior and possible mixing between the hydrogen-rich accreted matter and the core material is discussed in view of recent numerical ...

The donor stars of cataclysmic variables [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2006 Abstract We carefully consider observational and theoretical constraints on the global properties of secondary stars in cataclysmic variable stars (CVs). We then use these constraints to construct and test a complete, semi-empirical donor sequence for CVs with orbital periods Porb≤ 6 h.

Spectroscopic Identification and Population Properties of Cataclysmic Variables from DESI DR1
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesWe present a systematic search for cataclysmic variables (CVs) using spectroscopic data from Data Release 1 of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. Applying the Bagging-TopPush algorithm, we identified 433 CV candidates and related objects, of which

TESS Light Curves of Cataclysmic Variables. V. Improved or Corrected Orbital Periods of 53 Systems
The Astronomical JournalThe long and continuous high-time-resolution coverage of many stars by the Kepler and TESS space missions permit to explore periodic phenomena with a much higher precision than is possible with terrestrial observations.
