Suzaku View of Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 Results of magnetic cataclysmic variable studies performed with the Suzaku satellite are reviewed in this article. Particular emphasis is placed on the recent update of X-ray spectral model of intermediate polars, possible kinematically redshifted ...

Nova-like Cataclysmic Variables in the Infrared [PDF]
, 2014 Novalike cataclysmic variables have persistently high mass transfer rates and prominent steady state accretion disks. We present an analysis of infrared observations of twelve novalikes obtained from the Two Micron All Sky Survey, the Spitzer Space ...

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 ...

Population types of cataclysmic variables in the solar neighborhood [PDF]
, 2012 The Galactic orbital parameters of 159 cataclysmic variables in the Solar neighbourhood are calculated, for the first time, to determine their population types using published kinematical parameters.

High-Speed Photo-Polarimetry of Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 I review recent highlights of the SAAO High-speed Photo-POlarimeter (HIPPO) on the study of magnetic Cataclysmic Variables. Its high-speed capabilities are demonstrated with example observations made of the intermediate polar NY Lup and the polar ...

The BINSYN Program Package [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2012 The BINSYN program package, recently expanded to calculate synthetic spectra of cataclysmic variables, is being further extended to include synthetic photometry of ordinary binary stars in addition to binary stars with optically thick accretion disks ...

Evolutionary Effects of Irradiation in Cataclysmic Variables [PDF]
, 1998 The orbital evolution of cataclysmic variables in which the companion is illuminated by a fraction of the accretion luminosity consists of irradiation-driven limit cycles on thermal timescales, superimposed on a secular evolution toward shorter periods ...

Magnetic cataclysmic variable accretion flows [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2007 We have used a magnetic accretion model to investigate the accretion flows of magnetic cataclysmic variables (mCVs) throughout a range of parameter space. The results of our numerical simulations demonstrate that broadly four types of flow are possible: discs, streams, rings and propellers. We show that the equilibrium spin periods in asynchronous mCVs,
