New Complexities in the Low-State line profiles of AM Herculis

S. Kafka, T. Ribeiro, R. Baptista +2

When accretion temporarily ceases in the polar AM Her, the emission line profiles are known to develop several distinct components, whose origin remains poorly understood. The new…

Late-Type Near-Contact Eclipsing Binary [HH97] FS Aur-79

S. J. Austin, J. W. Robertson, C. Tycner +2

The secondary photometric standard star #79 for the FS Aur field (Henden & Honeycutt 1997) designated as [HH97] FS Aur-79 (GSC 1874 399) is a short period (0.2508 days) eclipsing b…

A Photometric and Spectroscopic Study of the Cataclysmic Variable ST LMi during 2005-2006

S. Kafka, S. B. Howell, R. K. Honeycutt +1

We present orbit-resolved spectroscopic and photometric observations of the polar ST LMi during its recent low and high states. In the low state spectra, we report the presence of…

Rapid Oscillations in Cataclysmic Variables. XVI. DW Cancri

Joseph Patterson, John Thorstensen, Tonny Vanmunster +7

We report photometry and spectroscopy of the novalike variable DW Cancri. The spectra show the usual broad H and He emission lines, with an excitation and continuum slope character…

The 2001 Superoutburst of WZ Sagittae

J. Patterson, G. Masi, M. Richmond +25

We report the results of a worldwide campaign to observe WZ Sagittae during its 2001 superoutburst. After a 23-year slumber at V=15.5, the star rose within 2 days to a peak brightn…

Long-term optical and X-ray observations of the old novae DI Lacertae and V841 Ophiuchi

D. W. Hoard, Paula Szkody, R. K. Honeycutt +3

We present an analysis of ground-based optical photometry and spectroscopy, and Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer X-ray observations of the old novae DI Lacertae and V841 Ophiuchi. Our o…
