RS Canum Venaticorum (RS CVn) close binaries, characterized by tidal locking, rapid rotations, and strong magnetic fields, are ideal laboratories for high-resolution radio observations to probe emission processes, magnetic field…

I present a brief review of the present status of X-ray emission from Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (MCVs). A short introduction to the types of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) is followed by a presentation of some of the properties of the two…

We present the first systematic search for UV signatures from radio source-driven AGN feedback in Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) radio galaxies. Owing to their characteristic sub-galactic jets (1-20 kpc projected linear sizes), CSS hosts are…

The Catalina Real Time Survey (CRTS) has found over 500 cataclysmic variable (CV) candidates, most of which were previously unknown. We report here on followup spectroscopy of 36 of the brighter objects. Nearly all the spectra are typical…

Mass transfer in cataclysmic variables (CVs) is usually considered to be caused by angular momentum loss (AML) driven by magnetic braking and gravitational radiation (GR) above the period gap, and solely by GR below the period gap. The…

The Very Large Array (VLA) has been used in C-configuration to map an area \~0.3 square degrees at 1.4 GHz with 5sigma sensitivities of 0.305, 0.325, 0.380 and 0.450 mJy/beam over four equal subareas. Radio properties are presented for 62…

Radio activity has been observed in a large variety of stellar objects, including in the last few years, ultra-cool dwarfs. To explore the extent of long-term radio activity in ultra-cool dwarfs, we use data taken over an extended period of…

Polarization measurements provide strong constraints on magnetic fields in star-forming systems. While magnetic field estimates of a few kiloGauss (kG) have been obtained near the surface of low-mass protostars, there are no analogous…

Continuing our efforts to select possible classical nova candidates among Far Eastern guest stars and to identify them with modern cataclysmic variables (CVs), we present a search for counterparts in 24 promising areas of the sky…

Magnetic CVs are luminous Galactic X-ray sources but have been difficult to find in purely optical surveys due to their lack of outburst behavior. The eROSITA telescope aboard the Spektr-RG (SRG) mission is conducting an all-sky X-ray…

Context: Some O stars are suspected to have to have (weak) magnetic fields because of the observed cyclical variability in their UV wind-lines. However, direct detections of these magnetic fields using optical spectropolarimetry have proven…

We have carried out an extensive population synthesis study of the ensemble properties of the present-day population of cataclysmic variables (PDCVs) that takes into account the nuclear evolution of high-mass donors close to the bifurcation…
