A new ROSAT discovered polar near the lower period limit: RX J1015.5+0904 in Leonis
We have identified the bright, soft, X-ray source RX J1015.6+0904 detected during the ROSAT All-Sky Survey with a newAMHerculis binary (polar). Its soft X-ray light curve is typical for a system with a one-pole accretion geometry and shows a bright phase lasting about 0.75 of the binary orbit with ROSAT PSPC countrates of up to 10 cts/s. The bright phase is interrupted by a 3min long dip with z...
متن کاملRX J1016.9–4103: a new soft X-ray polar in the period gap
We have discovered a new AM Her system as the optical counterpart of the ROSAT All-Sky-Survey source RX J1016.9–4103 (≡ 1RXS J101659.4-410332). The X-ray spectrum is very soft and the X-ray intensity is strongly modulated with the orbital period. Optical photometric and spectroscopic follow-up observations reveal a synchronously rotating binary with an orbital period of 134 min, placing RX J101...
متن کاملRX J1313.2–3259, a long-period Polar discovered with ROSAT
We report observations of a new AM Herculis binary identified as the optical counterpart of the X-ray source RX J1313.2–3259, detected during the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS). It has an orbital period of 251 min and is strongly modulated at optical wavelengths. The long-term behavior is characterized by a pronounced variation in X-rays between the RASS and two subsequent pointings (decrease by a...
متن کاملRX J 2133 . 7 + 5107 : Identification of a new long period Intermediate Polar ⋆ ⋆ ⋆
We report the first time-resolved photometric and spectroscopic optical observations of the X-ray source RX J2133.7+5107, identified in the ROSAT survey. A clear persistent optical light pulsation is discovered with fast photometry at a period of P ω =(570.823±0.013) s which we associate with the spin period of an accreting white dwarf. Radial velocity curves of the strong emission lines show m...
متن کاملRX J 0719 . 2 + 6557 : a new eclipsing polar
A newmagnetic cataclysmic variable is identified as the counterpart of the X-ray source RX J0719.2+6557 which has been discovered during the ROSAT all-sky survey. Optical spectroscopy of the ≈ 17m object revealed a pattern of Balmer and strongHe II emission lineswhich are characteristic for cataclysmic variables. The emission lines show radial velocity variations with a period of 98.2 min with ...
