The Intermediate Polar FO Aquarii Has Not Been the Same Since Recovering from a Series of Low States
Peter Garnavich, Colin Littlefield, Rebecca S. Boyle +1
FO Aqr is a bright intermediate polar that has long displayed large amplitude photometric variations corresponding to the 20.9 min spin period of its white dwarf. Between 2016 and…
A magnetic valve at L1 revealed in TESS photometry of the asynchronous polar BY Cam
Paul A. Mason, Colin Littlefield, Lorena C. Monroy +7
We present TESS photometry of the asynchronous polar BY Cam, which undergoes a beat-cycle between the 199.384-min white dwarf (WD) spin period and the 201.244-min orbital period. T…
Locating the flickering source in polars
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Simone Scaringi, Colin Littlefield +1
Flickering is a fast variability observed in all accreting systems. It has been shown that in most cataclysmic variables flickering originates in the accretion disc. However, in po…
Two temperate super-Earths transiting a nearby late-type M dwarf
L. Delrez, C. A. Murray, F. J. Pozuelos +82
In the age of JWST, temperate terrestrial exoplanets transiting nearby late-type M dwarfs provide unique opportunities for characterising their atmospheres, as well as searching fo…
Transient two pole accretion in the polar V496 UMa
M. R. Kennedy, C. Littlefield, P. M. Garnavich
We report XMM-Newton and TESS observations of V496 UMa, an AM Herculis-type cataclysmic variable. The XMM-Newton observation reveals that at times, two poles on the white dwarf acc…
Characteristics of the Permanent Superhumps in V533 Herculis
McKenna Leichty, Peter Garnavich, Colin Littlefield +2
We analyze two sectors of TESS photometry of the nova-like cataclysmic variable star V533 Her. We detect a periodicity consistent with the binary orbital period and estimate a revi…
