V405 Peg (RBS 1955): A Nearby, Low-Luminosity Cataclysmic Binary

J. R. Thorstensen, R. Schwarz, A. D. Schwope +5

(Abridged). The cataclysmic binary V405 Peg, originally discovered as ROSAT Bright Source (RBS) 1955 (= 1RXS J230949.6+213523), shows a strong contribution from a late-type seconda…

The changing accretion states of the intermediate polar MU Camelopardalis

A. Staude, A. D. Schwope, R. Schwarz +3

We study the timing and spectral properties of the intermediate polar MU Camelopardalis (1RXS J062518.2+733433) to determine the accretion modes and the accretion geometry from mul…

SW Sextantis stars: the dominant population of CVs with orbital periods between 3-4 hours

P. Rodriguez-Gil, B. T. Gaensicke, H. -J. Hagen +15

[Abridged] We present time-series optical photometry of five new CVs identified by the Hamburg Quasar Survey. The eclipses observed in HS 0129+2933, HS 0220+0603, and HS 0455+8315…

XMM-Newton observations of EF Eridani: the textbook example of low-accretion rate polars

A. D. Schwope, A. Staude, D. Koester +1

Archival X-ray observations of EF Eridani obtained in a low state revealed distinct X-ray detections at a luminosity L_X ~ 2 10^{29} erg/s, three orders of magnitude below its high…

Dwarf novae in the Hamburg Quasar Survey: Rarer than expected

A. Aungwerojwit, B. T. Gaensicke, P. Rodriguez-Gil +12

We report the discovery of five new dwarf novae from the Hamburg Quasar Survey (HQS), and discuss the properties of the sample of dwarf novae in the HQS. The orbital periods of the…
