Christopher W. Mauche (Lawrence Livermore Nat'l Lab.)
TL;DR
This paper reviews EUVE's role in studying boundary layer emissions in high accretion-rate nonmagnetic cataclysmic variables, focusing on dwarf novae during outburst and their EUV characteristics.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive summary of EUVE observations related to boundary layer emissions and discusses the spectral and temporal features of dwarf novae during outburst.
Findings
Analysis of optical and EUV light curves of dwarf nova outbursts.
Detection of quasi-coherent oscillations in EUV flux of SS Cyg.
Characterization of EUV spectra of dwarf novae.
Abstract
We summarize EUVE's contribution to the study of the boundary layer emission of high accretion-rate nonmagnetic cataclysmic variables, especially the dwarf novae SS Cyg, U Gem, VW Hyi, and OY Car in outburst. We discuss the optical and EUV light curves of dwarf nova outbursts, the quasi-coherent oscillations of the EUV flux of SS Cyg, the EUV spectra of dwarf novae, and the future of EUV observations of cataclysmic variables.
