چکیده
Recently published observations of VY Scl stars in their low, long-intermediate and high states confirm our model (Hameury & Lasota 2002) according to which accretion disks in such systems must vanish when their temperature corresponds to thermally unstable configurations. An observational confirmation of the hypothesis that the disk disappearance is caused by magnetic effects would have important consequences for cataclysmic variable evolution models. Subject headings: accretion, accretion disks – novae, cataclysmic variables – stars: individual (TT Ari, MV Lyr, DW UMa) – ultraviolet: stars – white dwarfs

A comparative XMM-Newton archival data spectral study of the ultraluminous Xray source (ULX) M33 X-8 has been performed by using both the standard disk model and the newly developed slim disk models. The results of this analysis tend to confirm the hypothesis that M33 X-8 is an X-ray binary with a stellar-mass black hole accreting at super-Eddington rate.

Archival Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field/Planetary Camera 2 observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud serendipitously reveal a possible counterpart to the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar CXOU J010043.1−721134. The candidate is faint, but its location and strange colours make it an interesting object. We estimate , that the probability of such a detection being due to a non-physical source is less tha...

Recently, there has been suggestions that the apparent accelerated expansion of the universe is due not to a cosmological constant, but rather to inhomogeneities in the distribution of matter. In this work, we investigate a specific class of inhomogeneous models that can be solved analytically, namely the dust-dominated Lemâitre-Tolman-Bondi universe models. We show that they do not permit acce...
