Cyclotron emitting magnetic white dwarfs in post common envelope binaries discovered with the Zwicky Transient Facility
J. van Roestel, A. C. Rodriguez, P. Szkody +20
We present the discovery of 14 new (and recovery of 4 known) low accretion rate magnetic white dwarfs in post-common envelope binaries that emit strong cyclotron emission using the…
The Nature of Optical Afterglows Without Gamma-ray Bursts: Identification of AT2023lcr and Multiwavelength Modeling
Maggie L. Li, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Geoffrey Ryan +29
In the past few years, the improved sensitivity and cadence of wide-field optical surveys have enabled the discovery of several afterglows without associated detected gamma-ray bur…
Cataclysmic Variables and AM CVn Binaries in SRG/eROSITA + Gaia: Volume Limited Samples, X-ray Luminosity Functions, and Space Densities
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, Valery Suleimanov +22
We present volume-limited samples of cataclysmic variables (CVs) and AM CVn binaries jointly selected from SRG/eROSITA eRASS1 and \textit{Gaia} DR3 using an X-ray + optical color-c…
The companion mass distribution of post common envelope hot subdwarf binaries: evidence for boosted and disrupted magnetic braking?
Lisa Blomberg, Kareem El-Badry, Katelyn Breivik +6
We measure the mass distribution of main-sequence (MS) companions to hot subdwarf B stars (sdBs) in post-common envelope binaries (PCEBs). We carried out a spectroscopic survey of…
Searching for New Cataclysmic Variables in the Chandra Source Catalog
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry +14
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) are compact binary systems in which a white dwarf accretes matter from a Roche-lobe-filling companion star. In this study, we searched for new CVs in th…
A Joint SRG/eROSITA + ZTF Search: Discovery of a 97-min Period Eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable with Evidence of a Brown Dwarf Secondary
Ilkham Galiullin, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni +24
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) that have evolved past the period minimum during their lifetimes are predicted to be systems with a brown dwarf donor. While population synthesis models…
