Observational population studies of cataclysmic variables - The golden era of surveys
B. T. Gaensicke
We review the properties of the currently known CV population from an accountants point of view. In particular, it is examined to what extent different selection mechanisms (variab…
IR spectroscopy of pre-cataclysmic binaries
C. Tappert, B. T. Gaensicke, R. E. Mennickent
We have taken near-infrared (JHK) spectroscopic data of a sample of pre-CVs, in order to examine them for signatures of nuclear evolution. Here we present preliminary results for t…
Properties of a spectroscopically selected CV sample
Boris T. Gaensicke, H. -J. Hagen, D. Engels
We have initiated a dedicated search for new CVs, selecting candidates on the base of their spectroscopic properties in the Hamburg Quasar Survey (HQS), which lead up to now to the…
A Newly Discovered SU UMa-Type Dwarf Nova, HS 1449+6415
D. Nogami, D. Engels, B. T. Gaensicke +3
We report time-resolved photometric observations of the Hamburg Quasar Survey-selected dwarf nova HS 1449+6415 (= RX J1450.5+6403) during the interval from JD 2451672 to 2451724. D…
The response of a dwarf nova disc to real mass transfer variations
M. R. Schreiber, B. T. Gaensicke, F. V. Hessman
We present simulations of dwarf nova outbursts taking into account realistic variations of the mass loss rate from the secondary. The mass transfer variation has been derived from…
BeppoSAX observations of AM Herculis in intermediate and high states
G. Matt, D. de Martino, B. T. Gaensicke +5
Temporal and spectral analyses from BeppoSAX observations of AM Her performed during both an intermediate and a high state are presented and discussed. Optical observations taken a…
