HS 2331+3905: The cataclysmic variable that has it all [PDF]
Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2005 We report detailed follow-up observations of the cataclysmic variable HS 2331+3905, identified as an emissionline object in the Hamburg Quasar Survey. An orbital period of 81.08 min is unambiguously determined from the detection of eclipses in the light ...

Novalike cataclysmic variables are significant radio emitters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015 Radio emission from non-magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs, accreting white dwarfs) could allow detailed studies of outflows and possibly accretion flows in these nearby, numerous and non-relativistic compact accretors.

INTEGRAL and Cataclysmic Variables
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2010The results of investigations of cataclysmic variables (CVs) with the ESA INTEGRAL satellite are briefly presented and discussed. It is evident that the satellite serves as an efficient tool to study some of these objects.

The Structure of Cataclysmic Variables
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1976The cataclysmic variables are usually divided into the following four classes: novae; recurrent novae; dwarf novae, which are subclassified as U Geminorum stars or Z Camelopardalis stars; and novalike variables. Those observations that bear most directly on the structure of cataclysmic variables at minimum light are reviewed.

On the Statistics of Cataclysmic Variables
1995We have conducted a X 2 test of the magnetic field distribution of AM Hers in comparison with isolated white dwarfs. If we use bins with field ranges of 10–29MG, 30–99MG, 100–299MG and >300MG, we obtain a X 2 of 10.1 (3 degrees of freedom). This implies a 100 MG is significant, and the period distribution for AM Hers and the other cataclysmic ...

The Cataclysmic Variable GD552
1985Time-resolved spectroscopic observations of the proper motion star GD552 were made at Lick Observatory using the image-tube scanner of the Shane 120-inch telescope. Radial velocity variations were measured for the HP emission line. No velocity variations were detected, with an upper limit of 35 kilometers per second on the semi-amplitude of the K ...

Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables
1993Cataclysmic variables (hereafter CVs) are close binaries in which a white dwarf accretes from a low mass companion, usually close to the main sequence. If the white dwarfhas a magnetic field of ≳ 105 G, the accretion flow will differ markedly from that expected in the non-magnetic case (see the chapter by Meyer-Hofmeister).

Cataclysmic and Symbiotic Variables
2002A cataclysmic variable (CV) [1,2] is a binary star system in which a white dwarf primary accretes hydrogen-rich material usually through an accretion disk from a Roche lobe filling secondary that is on or near the main sequence. The CVs consist of several classes such as classical novae, recurrent novae, nova-likes, dwarf novae, helium CVs, and ...

Extragalactic Cataclysmic Variables
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2005SALT is uniquely poised to make major inroads in the study of extragalactic cataclysmic variables (CVs) — novae and dwarf novae. The ability to search an external galaxy for erupting CVs night after night, for months at a time, AND to obtain confirmatory spectra within a night of discovery is unique and invaluable.
