A $\gamma\gamma$ collider, either in conjunction with an $e^+e^-$ linear collider or as a stand-alone facility, offers a very attractive Higgs physics programme at relatively low centre-of-mass (c.m.) energies. While the Higgs boson that…
The physics case for electron-positron beams at the Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) is succinctly summarized. The FCC-ee core program involves $e^+e^-$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 90, 160, 240, and 350 GeV with multi-ab$^{-1}$ integrated…

Electric currents j flow along the open magnetic field lines from the polar caps of neutron stars. Activity of a polar cap depends on the ratio \alpha=j/c\rho_GJ, where \rho_GJ is the corotation charge density. The customary assumption…
We present the discovery of a magnetic field on the white dwarf component in the detached post common envelope binary (PCEB) CC Cet. Magnetic white dwarfs in detached PCEBs are extremely rare, in contrast to the high incidence of magnetism…
We present polarization data for 32 mainly southern pulsars at 8.4 GHz. The observations show that the polarization fraction is low in most pulsars at this frequency except for the young, energetic pulsars which continue to show…
The subclass of magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (CV), known as asynchronous polars, are still relatively poorly understood. An asynchronous polar is a polar in which the spin period of the white dwarf is either shorter or longer than the…
