Modeling UX Ursae Majoris: An abundance of challenges
Albert P. Linnell, Patrick Godon, Ivan Hubeny +2
We present a system model for optical and far UV spectra of the nova-like variable UX UMa involving a white dwarf, secondary star, gas stream, hot spot and accretion disk using our…
Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Spectroscopy of the Nova-like BB Doradus
P. Godon, E. M. Sion, P. E. Barrett +2
We present an analysis of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer ({\it{FUSE}}) spectra of the little-known southern nova-like BB Doradus. The spectrum was obtained as part of o…
A Far Ultraviolet Archival Study of Cataclysmic Variables: I. FUSE and HST/STIS Spectra of the Exposed White Dwarf in Dwarf Nova Systems
P. Godon, E. M. Sion, P. E. Barrett +3
We present a synthetic spectral analysis of Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) and Hubble Space Telescope/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (HST/STIS) spectra of 5 dw…
Hubble Space Telescope STIS Spectroscopy of Long Period Dwarf Novae in Quiescence
E. M. Sion, B. T. Gaensicke, K. S. Long +5
We present the results of a synthetic spectral analysis of HST STIS spectra of five long period dwarf novae obtained during their quiescence to determine the properties of their wh…
Synthetic Spectrum Constraints on a Model of the Cataclysmic Variable QU Carinae
Albert P. Linnell, Patrick Godon, Ivan Hubeny +3
Neither standard model SEDs nor truncated standard model SEDs fit observed spectra of QU Carinae with acceptable accuracy over the range 900Åto 3000Å. Non-standard model SEDs fit t…
Simulations of the Boundary Layer Between a White Dwarf and its Accretion Disk
Dinshaw S. Balsara, Jacob Lund Fisker, Patrick Godon +1
Using a 2.5D time-dependent axisymmetric numerical code we recently developed, we solve the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations (including an alpha-viscosity prescription) to…
