Polarimetry and photometry of the new AM Herculis system RE J1844-741
(1995)
The ROSAT Wide Field Camera extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) source RE J1844-741 was identified with a 16th-magnitude cataclysmic variable with a period of 90 min by O'Donoghue et al. In this paper, we present spectropolarimetry ...
Discovery of another Am-Herculis Variable in the Period Gap
(1993)
Recently, Buckley et al. drew attention to a new AM Her variable, RE1938 - , discovered by the ROSAT survey with a period of 2.33 h which places it in the middle of the usual 2-3 h period gap for cataclysmic variables. ...
Detection of photospheric Zeeman features and cyclotron emission lines in V834 CEN in a low state
(1992)
Simultaneous spectroscopic and polarimetric observations of the AM Herculis system V834 Cen during a low state of accretion are reported. The polarization data show a reversal in the sign of the circular polarization when ...
Polarimetry of ST LMi - Discovery of a second accreting pole
(1992)
We have obtained simultaneous multiband photometric and polarimetric light curves for ST LMi (CW1103 + 254) in the visible range and the near-infrared on three occasions. These clearly show the presence of previously ...
New polarimetric observations and a 2 pole model for the cyclotron emission from AM Herculis
(1991)
High signal-to-noise ratio phase dependent linear polarization and intensity data on AM Herculis which show the presence of structured linear pulses in the optical and near IR regions is presented. The data have been ...
EXO 023432-5232.3 - an eclipsing AM Herculis binary
(1988)
The authors report observations of the serendipitous EXOSAT source EXO 023432-5232.3 which confirm that the object is an AM Herculis type binary and show the presence of eclipses by the companion star. From high-speed ...
Photometry and polarimetry of AM Herculis in its faint state
(1988)
Infrared and optical photometry and polarimetry of AM Herculis during the faint state of its long-term light variations are presented. The contributions of the two stellar photospheres are estimated and the distance of the ...
