Unveiling the period-bounce population of cataclysmic variables: Spectroscopic and time-domain follow-up of eROSITA-selected candidates

S. Hernández-Díaz, B. Stelzer, A. Schwope +9

During their secular evolution, cataclysmic variable stars (CVs) evolve toward shorter orbital periods () until reaching a minimum near min, after…

A Faint Progenitor System for the Faint Supernova 2024vjm

Erez A. Zimmerman, Avishay Gal-Yam, Paul J. Groot +68

Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) are well known for their role as standardizable cosmological candles. Their uniformity is credited to their single origin as thermonuclear explosions of…

How Mass Flows Through Accretion Discs: A Spectral-Timing Vision for the 2040s

Simone Scaringi, Domitilla de Martino, Anna F. Pala +17

Understanding how mass and angular momentum flow through accretion discs remains a fundamental unsolved problem in astrophysics. Accreting white dwarfs offer an ideal laboratory fo…
