Dwarf nova oscillations and quasi - periodic oscillations in cataclysmic variables - VIII . OY Carinae and oscillations in dwarf novae in quiescence
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have observed dwarf nova oscillations (DNOs) in OY Car during outburst, down through decline and beyond; its behaviour is similar to what we have previously seen in VW Hyi, making it only the second dwarf nova to have DNOs late in outburst that continue well into quiescence. There are also occasional examples of DNOs in deep quiescence, well away from outburst – they have properties similar to those during outburst, indicating similar physical causes and structures. We discuss the occurrence of DNOs in other dwarf novae and conclude that DNOs during quiescence are more common than often supposed and exhibit properties similar to those seen in outburst.

متن کاملDwarf nova oscillations and quasi-periodic oscillations in cataclysmic variables – V. Results from an extensive survey
We present observations of dwarf nova oscillations (DNOs), longer period dwarf nova oscillations (lpDNOs), and quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in 13 cataclysmic variable stars (CVs). In the six systems WW Cet, BP CrA, BR Lup, HP Nor, AG Hya, and V1193 Ori, rapid, quasi-coherent oscillations are detected for the first time. For the remainder of the systems discussed we have observed more clas...
متن کاملEUVE Observations of Nonmagnetic Cataclysmic Variables
We summarize EUVE ’s contribution to the study of the boundary layer emission of high accretion-rate nonmagnetic cataclysmic variables, especially the dwarf novae SS Cyg, U Gem, VW Hyi, and OY Car in outburst. We discuss the optical and EUV light curves of dwarf nova outbursts, the quasi-coherent oscillations of the EUV flux of SS Cyg, the EUV spectra of dwarf novae, and the future of EUV obser...
متن کاملDwarf Nova Oscillations and Quasi-Periodic Oscillations in Cataclysmic Variables: III. A New Kind of Dwarf Nova Oscillation, and Further Examples of the Similarities to X-Ray Binaries
We present measurements of the periods of Dwarf Nova Oscillations (DNOs) and Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) in cataclysmic variable stars (CVs), many culled from published literature but also others newly observed (in VZ Pyx, CR Boo, OY Car, Z Cha, AQ Eri, TU Men, HX Peg, CN Ori, V893 Sco, WX Hyi and EC2117-54). These provide data for 26 systems. We show that in general PQPO ∼ 15 PDNO and t...
متن کاملCorrelation of the Quasi-Periodic Oscillation Frequencies of White Dwarf, Neutron Star, and Black Hole Binaries
Using data obtained in 1994 June/July with the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer deep survey photometer and in 2001 January with the Chandra X-ray Observatory Low Energy Transmission Grating Spectrograph, we investigate the extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray oscillations of the dwarf nova SS Cyg in outburst. We find quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) at ν0 ≈ 0.012 Hz and ν1 ≈ 0.13 Hz in the EU...
