Unveiling the white dwarf in the eclipsing polar HU Aquarii
A. D. Schwope, T. R. Marsh, S. G. Parsons +2
We present an analysis of high-speed u- and r-band photometry of the eclipsing polar HU Aquarii that was obtained with ULTRACAM mounted on the VLT. The observations were performed…
Post common envelope binaries from SDSS. XII: The orbital period distribution
A. Nebot Gómez-Morán, B. T. Gänsicke, M. R. Schreiber +18
The complexity of the common envelope phase and of magnetic stellar wind braking currently limits our understanding of close binary evolution. Because of their intrinsically simple…
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…
Hunting high and low: XMM monitoring of the eclipsing polar HU Aquarii
R. Schwarz, A. D. Schwope, J. Vogel +5
We want to study the temporal and spectral behaviour of HU Aqr in the X-ray domain during different accretion states. We obtained spectra and light curves from four different XMM-N…
Post common envelope binaries from SDSS. IV: SDSSJ121258.25-012310.1, a new eclipsing system
A. Nebot Gómez-Morán, A. D. Schwope, M. R. Schreiber +8
From optical photometry we show that SDSSJ121258.25-012310.1 is a new eclipsing, post common-envelope binary with an orbital period of 8.06 hours and an eclipse length of 23 minute…
Post Common Envelope Binaries from SDSS - III. Seven new orbital periods
A. Rebassa-Mansergas, B. T. Gaensicke, M. R. Schreiber +11
We present follow-up spectroscopy and photometry of 11 post common envelope binary (PCEB) candidates identified from multiple Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectroscopy in an ear…
