The Secondary Stars in Short Period (Magnetic) Cataclysmic Variables
We review the recent knowledge base pertaining to causes for mass accretion variations (high/low states) in highly magnetic cataclysmic variables (i.e. polars). We then examine what theory has to say about the properties of the secondary stars (the mass donors) with respect to those CVs with very short orbital periods. Finally, we use recent observations of EF Eri in an extended low state to pr...
متن کاملThe short period end of the contact binary period distribution based on the All Sky Automated Survey (ASAS)
The search-volume corrected period distribution of contact binaries of the W UMa type appears to reflect primarily the constant number ratio of ≃ 1/500 to the number of stars along the Main Sequence; there exist no evidence for angular momentum evolution. The maximum in contact binary numbers is located at shorter periods than estimated before, P ≃ 0.27 d. The drop in numbers towards the cut-of...
متن کاملOn the evolutionary status of short period cataclysmic variables
We present high-speed, three-colour photometry of seven short period (Porb 6 95 mins) eclipsing CVs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We determine the system parameters via a parametrized model of the eclipse fitted to the observed lightcurve by χ minimization. Three out of seven of the systems possess brown dwarf donor stars and are believed to have evolved past the orbital period minimum. Th...
متن کاملASAS Eclipsing Binaries with Observed High Period Change Rates
We present 31 bright eclipsing contact and semi-detached binaries that showed high period change rates in a 5 year interval in observations by the All-Sky Automated Survey (ASAS). The time-scales |P/Ṗ | of these changes range from only 50 up to 400 kyr. The orbital periods of 10 binaries are increasing and of 21 are decreasing, and even a larger excess is seen in contact binaries, where the num...
متن کاملHigh - precision photometry by telescope defocussing . VII . The ultra - short period planet WASP - 103 ⋆
We present 17 transit light curves of the ultra-short period planetary system WASP-103, a strong candidate for the detection of tidally-induced orbital decay. We use these to establish a high-precision reference epoch for transit timing studies. The time of the reference transit midpoint is now measured to an accuracy of 4.8 s, versus 67.4 s in the discovery paper, aiding future searches for or...
