A Synthetic Spectrum and Light Curve Analysis of the Cataclysmic Variable IX Velorum

Astrophysics 2011-02-11 v2

Abstract

Spectrum synthesis analysis of FUSE and STIS spectra of the cataclysmic variable IX Velorum successfully produces a system model. Light synthesis analysis of K band photometry shows that the accretion disk rim is vertically extended beyond the gravitational equilibrium value.
