ULTRACAM observations of SDSS J170213.26+322954.1– an eclipsing cataclysmic variable in the period gap
We present high-speed, three-colour photometry of the eclipsing cataclysmic variable SDSS J170213.26+322954.1 (hereafter SDSS J1702+3229). This system has an orbital period of 2.4 hours, placing it within the “period gap” for cataclysmic variables. We determine the system parameters via a parameterized model of the eclipse fitted to the observed light curve by χ minimization. We obtain a mass r...

A photometric study of the newly discovered eclipsing cataclysmic variable SDSS J040714.78-064425.1 Abstract: We present the results obtained from unfiltered photometric CCD observations of the newly discovered cataclysmic variable SDSS J040714.78-064425.1 made during 7 nights in November 2003. We establish the dwarf nova nature of the object as it was in outburst during our observations. We al...
متن کاملDiscovery of a bright eclipsing cataclysmic variable
Aims. We report on the discovery of J0644+3344, a bright deeply eclipsing cataclysmic variable (CV) binary. Methods. Optical photometric and spectroscopic observations were obtained to determine the nature and characteristics of this CV. Results. Spectral signatures of both binary components and an accretion disk can be seen at optical wavelengths. The optical spectrum shows broad H I, He I, an...
متن کاملCataclysmic variable evolution: AM Her binaries and the period gap
AM Her variables – synchronised magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs) – exhibit a different period distribution from other CVs across the period gap. We show that non-AM Her systems may infiltrate the longer-period end of the period gap if they are metal-deficient, but that the position and width of the gap in orbital period is otherwise insensitive to other binary parameters (excepting the norm...
متن کاملSDSS J 0926 + 3624 , the first eclipsing AM CVn star , as seen with ULTRACAM
We present light curves of SDSS J0926+3624, the first eclipsing AM CVn star, observed with the high-speed CCD camera ULTRACAM on the WHT. We find unusually that the accreting white dwarf is only partially eclipsed by its companion. Apart from this, the system shows the classic eclipse morphology displayed by eclipsing dwarf novae, namely the eclipse of a white dwarf and accretion disc followed ...
