phoptic -- a Python package for reducing astronomical images
Zackery A. Irving, Noel Castro Segura, Diego Altamirano +6
phoptic is an open‑source Python package that provides a flexible photometry pipeline for reducing astronomical images, supporting multiple instruments and offering optimal photome…
A Catalogue of Orbital Periods of Cataclysmic Variables and Candidates from TESS Observations
Meryem K. DaÄ, Simone Scaringi, Kieran O'Brien +21
We present a systematic analysis of 2544 cataclysmic variable systems and related candidates observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), with the aim of compiling…
DW Cnc: a micronova with a negative superhump and a flickering spin
M. Veresvarska, S. Scaringi, C. Littlefield +15
Magnetic accreting white dwarfs in cataclysmic variables have been known to show bursts driven by different physical mechanisms; however, the burst occurrence is much rarer than in…
X-Ray, UV, and Optical Observations of Proxima Centauri's Stellar Cycle
B. J. Wargelin, S. H. Saar, Z. A. Irving +3
Proxima Cen (GJ 551; dM5.5e) is one of only about a dozen fully convective stars known to have a stellar cycle, and the only one to have long-term X-ray monitoring. A previous anal…
Discovery of Persistent Quasi-Periodic Oscillations in Accreting White Dwarfs: A New Link to X-ray Binaries
M. Veresvarska, S. Scaringi, C. Knigge +8
Almost all accreting black hole and neutron star X-ray binary systems (XRBs) exhibit prominent brightness variations on a few characteristic time-scales and their harmonics. These…
