RX J2115--5840: confirmation of a new near-synchronous polar
Gavin Ramsay, David A. H. Buckley, Mark Cropper +1
Following the suggestion of Schwope et al that the magnetic cataclysmic variable RX J2115-5840 maybe a near-synchronous polar, we obtained optical polarimetry of this system over a…
RX J2115-5840: confirmation of a new near-synchronous polar
Gavin Ramsay, David Buckley, Mark Cropper +1
Schwope et al (1997) suggested that the newly discovered Polar RX J2115-5840 is a near-synchronous system. We have obtained circular polarisation observations of RX J2115-5840 whic…
The optical counterpart of the double degenerate polar RX J1914+24
Gavin Ramsay, Mark Cropper, Keith Mason +1
Cropper et al 1998 presented X-ray observations of RX J1914+24 and claimed that the most likely interpretation of their data was that of a double degenerate Polar. Here we show the…
Continuum and line emission from post-shockc flows
Mark Cropper, Kinwah Wu, Gavin Ramsay
The post-shock flow in the accretion region of MCVs is considered to be a magnetically confined cooling flow. The X-ray spectrum from this hot plasma is emitted from a range of tem…
