Cataclysmic Variables. Recent Multi-Frequency Observations and Theoretical Developments
Author: H. DrechselPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400938012
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 760
Book Description
Recent advances in observational and theoretical efforts in understanding the nature of cataclysmic variables had reached such maturity that there existed a strong, shared feeling among the workers in this field that an international colloquium sponsored by the International Astronomical Union would be timely. To be more specific, this was due primarily to the accumulation of the new data from satellite observatories, such as the International Ultraviolet Observatory (IUE) and EXOSAT, as well as ground-based optical and radio telescopes, and the advances in modeling the putative accretion disks and the thermo-nuclear run-away phenomena in the vinicity of the white dwarf stars in cataclysmic variables. A series of workshops on this subject held in North America over the past several years and that held in Europe in 1985 had all contributed to the advances in our knowledge that led to IAU Colloguium No. 93, held in Bamberg from the 16th to 19th of June 1986. In all, 157 astronomers from 27 countries participated in this conference. Judging from the papers presented, both invited and contributed, and from the enthusiasm seen in discussions, the meeting was indeed a success.

Book Description
Cataclysmic variables (CVs) are useful to astronomers for the investigation of a number of important physical processes. The proceedings of the June 1994 conference present new observational and theoretical results on CVs, organized in eight sections: observational overview (classical novae/CVs); individual objects; thermonuclear runaways; spectral evolution of novae and problems in nebular physics; accretion induced phenomena; the role of magnetic fields; supersoft x- ray sources and their relation to CVs; and evolution and evolutionary links.

Book Description
This volume begins with an introductory chapter on general properties of cataclysmic variables. Chapters 2 through 5 of Part 1 are devoted to observations and interpretation of dwarf novae and nova-like stars. Chapters 6 through 10, Part 2, discuss the general observational properties of classical and recurrent novae, the theoretical models, and the characteristics and models for some well observed classical novae and recurrent novae. Chapters 11 through 14 of Part 3 are devoted to an overview of the observations of symbiotic stars, to a description of the various models proposed for explaining the symbiotic phenomenon, and to a discussion of a few selected objects, respectively. Chapter 15 briefly examines the many unsolved problems posed by the observations of the different classes of cataclysmic variables and symbiotic stars.
