We present RXTE and BeppoSAX observations of the Intermediate Polar V709 Cas acquired in 1997 and 1998 respectively. The X-ray emission from 0.1 to 30keV is dominated by the strong pulsation at the rotational period of the white dwarf…

Utilizing high-cadence and long-term optical photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS ), we conducted a time-resolved timing analysis of the Intermediate Polar, V709 Cas. Our analysis reveals key characteristics of…

XY Ari is the only intermediate polar to show deep X-ray eclipses of its white dwarf. Previously published observations with Ginga and Chandra have also revealed a broad X-ray orbital modulation, roughly antiphased with the eclipse, and…

We observed the intermediate polar RX J0558+53 with the 4.2m WHT and find in the pulsed emission lines, a ``corkscrew'' pattern, which indicates a two-pole white dwarf accretion. The ``corkscrew'' pattern consists of two emission-line…

Results are presented from the first detailed spectroscopic observations of the recently identified intermediate polar RXJ0028.8+5917/V709 Cas. The study of the emission line radial velocities allows us to remove the uncertainties on the…

We present fast timing photometric observations of the intermediate polar V2069 Cygni (RX J2123.7+4217) using the Optical Timing Analyzer (OPTIMA) at the 1.3 m telescope of Skinakas Observatory. The optical (450-950 nm) light curve of V2069…

V405 Aurigae is an intermediate polar showing a double-peaked pulsation in soft X-rays and a single-peaked pulsation in harder X-rays. From XMM-Newton observations we find that the soft band is dominated by blackbody emission from the…

A detailed analysis of X-ray data from ROSAT, ASCA, XMM and RXTE for the asynchronous polar V1432 Aql along with Stokes polarimetry data from SAAO, is presented. Power spectra from long-baseline ROSAT data show a spin period of 12150s along…

We report on a ~37-ks XMM-Newton observation of the intermediate polar FO Aquarii, presenting X-ray and UV data from the EPIC and OM cameras. We find that the system has changed from its previously reported state of disc-overflow accretion…

RXTE observed 20 eclipse egresses of the intermediate polar XY Ari in order to study the size and structure of the X-ray emitting accretion regions. The spin-phase averaged egress lasts 26 s, implying a white dwarf radius of 4.3-7.0 10^8…

White dwarfs (WDs) are the most abundant compact objects, and recent surveys have suggested that over a third of WDs in accreting binaries host a strong (B $\gtrsim$ 1 MG) magnetic field. However, the origin and evolution of WD magnetism…
