Fast quasi-periodic oscillations in the eclipsing polar VV Puppis from VLT and XMM-Newton observations

J. M. Bonnet-Bidaud, M. Mouchet, E. Falize +7

We present high time resolution optical photometric data of the polar VV Puppis obtained simultaneously in three filters (u', HeII 4686, r') with the ULTRACAM camera mounted at…

Laboratory radiative accretion shocks on GEKKO XII laser facility for POLAR project

L. Van Box Som, E. Falize, M. Koenig +20

A new target design is presented to model high-energy radiative accretion shocks in polars. In this paper, we present the experimental results obtained on the GEKKO XII laser facil…

Numerical simulations of high-energy flows in accreting magnetic white dwarfs

Lucile Van Box Som, Emeric Falize, Jean-Marc Bonnet-Bidaud +3

Some polars show quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO) in their optical light curves which have been interpreted as the result of shock oscillations driven by the cooling instability.…

Quasi-periodic oscillations in accreting magnetic white dwarfs II. The asset of numerical modelling for interpreting observations

C. Busschaert, E. Falize, C. Michaut +2

Magnetic cataclysmic variables are close binary systems containing a strongly magnetized white dwarf that accretes matter coming from an M-dwarf companion. High-energy radiation co…

Quasi-periodic oscillations in accreting magnetic white dwarfs I. Observational constraints in X-ray and optical

J. M. Bonnet-Bidaud, M. Mouchet, C. Busschaert +2

Quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are observed in the optical flux of some polars with typical periods of 1 to 3 s but none have been observed yet in X-rays where a significant pa…

The ephemeris, orbital decay, and masses of 10 eclipsing HMXBs

M. Falanga, E. Bozzo, A. Lutovinov +3

We take advantage of more than 10 years of monitoring of the eclipsing HMXB systems LMC X-4, Cen X-3, 4U 1700-377, 4U 1538-522, SMC X-1, IGR J18027-2016, Vela X-1, IGR J17252-3616,…
