Polarimetry and spectroscopy of the polar RX J 1141 . 3 - 6410 ?

چکیده
We present the first optical polarimetric measurements of RX J1141.3-6410 which confirm that star as a polar. The circular polarization varies between 0 and 13% with the or-bital period. Hα spectroscopy shows that this line is formed by, at least, two components: a broad and a narrow one. The phase of maximum redshift of the broad component is shifted by 0.5 with the phase of maximum circular polarization which is not usual for this class of stars. We suggest a geometrical configuration for the system which could explain the main features of the polarimetric and spectroscopic data.

Rx J0744{52: a Probable New Intermediate Polar
We present optical and X-ray data of the Cataclysmic Variable RX0744{52 discovered using ROSAT by Motch et al. High resolution spectroscopy centred on the H line indicates a probable orbital period of 3.60 hrs. From its distance (obtained using polarimetry), its X-ray luminosity, its X-ray colour and its X-ray/UV+Opt ratio, we suggest that RX0744{52 is an new Intermediate Polar. The absence of ...
متن کاملSpectroscopic observations of the eclipsing Polar MN Hya ( RX J 0929 – 24 )
We present low–medium resolution optical spectroscopy of the eclipsing AM Her system MN Hya (RX J0929–24). We determine the magnetic field strength at the primary accretion region of the white dwarf to be 42MG from the spacing of cyclotron features visible during φ ∼0.4–0.7. From spectra taken during the eclipse we find that the secondary has a M3–4 spectral type. Combined with the eclipse phot...
متن کاملImproving the RX Anomaly Detection Algorithm for Hyperspectral Images using FFT
Anomaly Detection (AD) has recently become an important application of target detection in hyperspectral images. The Reed-Xialoi (RX) is the most widely used AD algorithm that suffers from “small sample size” problem. The best solution for this problem is to use Dimensionality Reduction (DR) techniques as a pre-processing step for RX detector. Using this method not only improves the detection p...
متن کاملOn the polar derivative of a polynomial
For a polynomial p(z) of degree n, having all zeros in |z|< k, k< 1, Dewan et al [K. K. Dewan, N. Singh and A. Mir, Extension of some polynomial inequalities to the polar derivative, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 352 (2009) 807-815] obtained inequality between the polar derivative of p(z) and maximum modulus of p(z). In this paper we improve and extend the above inequality. Our result generalizes certai...
متن کاملThe periods of the intermediate polar RX J0153.3+7446
We present the first optical photometry of the counterpart to the candidate intermediate polar RX J0153.3+7446. This reveals an optical pulse period of 2333± 5 s. Reanalysis of the previously published ROSAT X-ray data reveals that the true X-ray pulse period is probably 1974± 30 s, rather than the 1414 s previously reported. Given that the previously noted orbital period of the system is 3.94 ...
