X-ray emission from magnetic cataclysmic variables
, 2013 I present a brief review of the present status of X-ray emissi on from Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (MCVs). A short introduction to the types of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) is followed by a presentation of some of the properties of the two types of ...

The Evolution of Cataclysmic Variables
, 2011 I review our current understanding of the evolution of cataclysmic variables (CVs). I first provide a brief introductory "CV primer", in which I describe the physical structure of CVs, as well as their astrophysical significance. The main part of the review is divided into three parts. The first part outlines the theoretical principles of CV evolution,

Two-temperature accretion flows in magnetic cataclysmic variables: Structures of post-shock emission regions and X-ray spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2005 We use a two-temperature hydrodynamical formulation to determine the temperature and density structures of the post-shock accretion flows in magnetic cataclysmic variables (mCVs) and calculate the corresponding X-ray spectra.

Negative Superhumps in Cataclysmic Variables Driven by Retrograde Apsidal Disk Precession
The Astrophysical Journal LettersNegative superhumps (NSHs) are photometric modulations in cataclysmic variables with periods slightly shorter than the orbital period. They are usually attributed to retrograde nodal precession of a tilted accretion disk, although the origin and ...

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.

Evolution of Cataclysmic Variables with Binary-driven Mass Loss during Nova Eruptions
The Astrophysical JournalThe 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.
