Cataclysmic variables (CVs) are close binary systems in which a white dwarf accretes material from a companion star, typically a low‐mass, main-sequence star. The accretion process, often mediated by ...

Dwarf novae are a prominent subclass of cataclysmic variables; binary star systems in which a white dwarf accretes matter from a donor star. This accretion process drives episodic outbursts due to ...

Using multiple telescopes, astronomers have detected two new magnetic cataclysmic variable systems of the polar subclass and determined their fundamental properties. The finding, which could help us ...
