Idling Magnetic White Dwarf in the Synchronizing Polar BY Cam. The Noah-2 Project

open access: yes, 2008
Results of a multi-color study of the variability of the magnetic cataclysmic variable BY Cam are presented. The observations were obtained at the Korean 1.8m and Ukrainian 2.6m, 1.2m and 38-cm telescopes in 2003-2005, 56 observational runs cover 189 ...

Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor Parallaxes For Four Classical Novae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have used data obtained with the Fine Guidance Sensors on the Hubble Space Telescope to derive precise astrometric parallaxes for four classical novae: V603 Aql, DQ Her, GK Per, and RR Pic.

Broadband X-Ray Observations of the Periodic Optical Source ZTF J185139.81+171430.3 and Its Identification as a Massive Intermediate Polar

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present X-ray observations of the periodic optical source ZTF J185139.81+171430.3 (hereafter ZTF J1851) by the XMM-Newton, NICER, and NuSTAR telescopes.

A Broadband X-Ray Investigation of Fast-spinning Intermediate Polar CTCV J2056–3014

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report on XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, and NICER X-ray observations of CTCV J2056–3014, a cataclysmic variable (CV) with one of the fastest-spinning white dwarfs (WDs) at P = 29.6 s.

Evidence for ablated flows in the shell of nova DQ Her

open access: yes, 2007
High-resolution longslit Halpha spectra of the shell of the old nova DQ Her have been obtained with the William Herschel Telescope using the ISIS spectrograph.

Is FIRST J102347.6+003841 Really a Cataclysmic Binary? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The radio source FIRST J102347.6+003841 was presented as the first radio-selected cataclysmic. In the discovery paper, Bond et al. (2002) show a spectrum consistent with a magnetic AM Her-type system and a light curve with rapid, irregular flickering. In

Nova V1425 Aquilae 1995 - The Early Appearance of Accretion Processes in An Intermediate Polar Candidate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Continuous CCD photometry of Nova Aquilae 1995 was performed through the standard B,V,R and I filters during three nights in 1995 and with the I filter during 18 nights in 1996. The power spectrum of the 1996 data reveals three periodicities in the light

HST Observations of the Cataclysmic Variable Propeller LAMOST J024048.51+195226.9

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) far-UV spectra and light curves of the magnetic cataclysmic variable (CV) LAMOST J024048.51+195226.9 (J0240), the second known CV propeller. The five consecutive HST orbits span a full 7.34 hr binary orbital period.

Long-term Periodicities of Cataclysmic Variables with Synoptic Surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A systematic study on the long-term periodicities of known Galactic cataclysmic variables (CVs) was conducted. Among 1580 known CVs, 344 sources were matched and extracted from the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) data repository.

Classifying Optical (Out)bursts in Cataclysmic Variables: The Distinct Observational Characteristics of Dwarf Novae, Micronovae, Stellar Flares, and Magnetic Gating

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Cataclysmic variables can experience short optical brightenings, which are commonly attributed to phenomena such as dwarf novae outbursts, micronovae, donor flares, or magnetic gating bursts.
