Followup Observations of SDSS and CRTS Candidate Cataclysmic Variables II
Paula Szkody, Mark E. Everett, Zhibin Dai +1
Spectra of 38 candidate or known cataclysmic variables are presented. Most are candidate dwarf novae or systems containing possible highly magnetic white dwarfs, while a few (KR Au…
Roche tomography of cataclysmic variables - VIII: The irradiated and spotted dwarf nova, SS Cygni
C. A. Hill, Robert Connon Smith, L. Hebb +1
We present the results of our spectroscopic study of the dwarf nova SS Cygni, using Roche tomography to map the stellar surface and derive the system parameters. Given that this te…
Quiescent photometric modulations of two low-inclination cataclysmic variables KZGem and TWVir
Zhibin Dai, Paula Szkody, Ali Taani +2
The quiescent periodic photometric modulations of two low-inclination cataclysmic variables observed in Kepler K2 Campaigns 0 and 1, KZ Gem and TW Vir, are investigated. A phase-co…
Science-Driven Optimization of the LSST Observing Strategy
LSST Science Collaboration, Phil Marshall, Timo Anguita +102
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope is designed to provide an unprecedented optical imaging dataset that will support investigations of our Solar System, Galaxy and Universe, acros…
Hubble Space Telescope Ultraviolet Light Curves Reveal Interesting Properties of CC Sculptoris and RZ Leonis
Paula Szkody, Anjum S. Mukadam, Odette Toloza +6
Time-tag ultraviolet data obtained on the Hubble Space Telescope in 2013 reveal interesting variability related to the white dwarf spin in the two cataclysmic variables RZ Leo and…
Effective Temperatures of Cataclysmic Variable White Dwarfs as a Probe of their Evolution
A. F. Pala, B. T. Gänsicke, D. Townsley +29
We present HST spectroscopy for 45 cataclysmic variables (CVs), observed with HST/COS and HST/STIS. For 36 CVs, the white dwarf is recognisable through its broad Ly absorption p…
