Evidence for Superhumps in the Radio Light Curve of Algol and a New Model for Magnetic Activity in Algol Systems
Alon Retter, Mercedes T. Richards, Kinwah Wu
Extensive radio data of two Algol systems and two RS CVn binaries were re-analyzed. We found evidence for a new periodicity that we interpret as a superhump in Algol, in which it m…

Accretion Flow Along a Dipolar Field: Application to Intermediate Polars
J. B. G. Canalle, Kinwah Wu, Mark Cropper +2
A hydrodynamic formulation for accretion flow channeled by a dipolar magnetic field is constructed using a curvi-linear coordinate system natural to the field structure. We solve t…
