Ultraviolet observations of cataclysmic variables [PDF]
Advances in Space Research, 1987 AbstractThe preliminary results of the analysis of more than 1000 spectra of cataclysmic variables in the archive of the International Ultraviolet Explorer were presented at the meeting. To characterize the slope of the spectra I use F = log(f1460Å/f2880Å). For most spectra F lies between 0.2 and 0.7.

Accretion in Cataclysmic Variable Stars [PDF]
, 2005 We consider accretion onto the white dwarfs in cataclysmic variables in relation to nova eruptions, dwarf nova outbursts, hibernation and non-radial oscillations.

Rapid oscillations in cataclysmic variables [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 1986 I give an overview of the rich phenomenology of dwarf nova oscillations (DNOs) and Quasi-periodic Oscillations (QPOs) observed in cataclysmic variable stars (CVs). The favoured interpretation of these rapid brightness modulations (3 - >1000 s time scales) is that they are magnetic in nature - magnetically channelled accretion from the inner ...

The hybrid Nova Vul 2024 (=V615 Vul)
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. Among galactic novae, many remain poorly characterized due to heterogeneous data, observational challenges, or heavy reddening along the Galactic plane.

Automatic Search of Cataclysmic Variables Based on LightGBM in LAMOST-DR7
Universe, 2021 The search for special and rare celestial objects has always played an important role in astronomy. Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) are special and rare binary systems with accretion disks.

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.

Rotation and Cataclysmic Variables [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004 Cataclysmic Variables are binary star systems and so are closely connected to the subject of this meeting. The stars revolve around the center of mass of the system. The gas lost by the secondary through the inner Lagrangian point enters the Roche lobe of the white dwarf with the angular momentum of the L1point and, therefore, forms an accretion disk ...

MAGNETIC CATACLYSMIC VARIABLES: 25 YEARS OF EXCITING PERFOMANCE
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017 Exactly 25 years ago, Santiago Tapia has detected circular and linear polarization of AM Her varying with the same period as the photometric and spectral characteristics. This had lead to a discovery of unprecedentedly exotic binary systems, in which the
