Inner Disk Structure of Dwarf Novae in the Light of X-Ray Observations [PDF]

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015
Diversity of the X-ray observations of dwarf nova are still not fully understood. I review the X-ray spectral characteristics of dwarf novae during the quiescence in general explained by cooling flow models and the outburst spectra that show hard X-ray ...

Investigation of Superhumps in SU UMa-type Dwarf Novae Based on the Observations of TESS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We report a superhumps analysis of seven SU UMa-type dwarf novae based on observations made by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Superhumps are seen during the superoutbursts of SU UMa-type dwarf novae. The monthlong data sets of TESS are

The Relationship Between X-ray Luminosity and Duty Cycle for Dwarf Novae and their Specific Frequency in the Inner Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We measure the duty cycles for an existing sample of well observed, nearby dwarf novae using data from AAVSO, and present a quantitative empirical relation between the duty cycle of dwarf novae outbursts and the X-ray luminosity of the system in ...

Survey of Period Variations of Superhumps in SU UMa-Type Dwarf Novae. VI: The Sixth Year (2013-2014) [PDF]

open access: yesNippon Tenmon Gakkai obun kenkyu hokoku, 2014
Continuing the project described by Kato et al. (2009, PASJ, 61, S395, arXiv:0905.1757), we collected times of superhump maxima for 56 SU UMa-type dwarf novae mainly observed during the 2013-2014 season and characterized these objects.

WZ Sge-Type Dwarf Novae [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2015
We have summarized the current understanding and recently obtained findings about WZ Sge-type dwarf novae. We also reviewed the historical development of the understanding of these objects, provided the modern criteria, and reviewed the past research in ...

The disc instability model of dwarf novae and low-mass X-ray binary transients [PDF]

open access: yesNew Astronomy Reviews, 2001
The disc instability model which is supposed to describe outbursts of dwarf nova and low-mass X-ray binary transient systems is presented and reviewed in detail.

Deriving an X-ray luminosity function of dwarf novae based on parallax measurements [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010
We have derived an X-ray luminosity function using parallax-based distance measurements of a set of 12 dwarf novae, consisting of Suzaku, XMM–Newton and ASCA observations.

The Fall and the Rise of X-rays from Dwarf Novae in Outburst: RXTE Observations of VW Hydri and WW Ceti [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In a dwarf nova, the accretion disk around the white dwarf is a source of ultraviolet, optical, and infrared photons, but is never hot enough to emit X-rays.

Hydrodynamic Studies of the Evolution of Recurrent, Symbiotic and Dwarf Novae: the White Dwarf Components are Growing in Mass [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2012
Symbiotic binaries are systems containing white dwarfs (WDs) and red giants. Symbiotic novae are those systems in which thermonuclear eruptions occur on the WD components.

A dwarf nova in the globular cluster M13 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
Dwarf novae in globular clusters seem to be rare with only 13 detections in the 157 known Galactic globular clusters. We report the identification of a new dwarf nova in M13, the 14th dwarf nova identified in a globular cluster to date.
