SV Cen reveals its mystery

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2009-09-30 v1

Abstract

Our very-first high resolution spectra of SV Cen close binary system obtained in the H alpha line reveal its absorption and emmision components, changing with orbital phase. An accretion disk surrounding the component eclipsed at the primary minimum is the most plausible explanation of this complex structure.
