We present new phase-resolved H and K-band spectroscopy of the ultra-short period magnetic cataclysmic variable EF Eri in its current, prolonged ``low'' state obtained using NIRI on Gemini-North, and NIRSPEC on Keck II. These new data show…
Archival X-ray observations of EF Eridani obtained in a low state revealed distinct X-ray detections at a luminosity L_X ~ 2 10^{29} erg/s, three orders of magnitude below its high state value. The plasma temperature was found to be as low…
We present the first mid-infrared (5.5-14.5 micron) spectrum of a highly magnetic cataclysmic variable, EF Eridani, obtained with the Infrared Spectrograph on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The spectrum displays a relatively flat, featureless…
We present phase-resolved low resolution infrared spectra of AM Her and ST LMi, two low-field polars that we observed with SPEX on the IRTF. Optical/NIR lightcurves are also published to help constrain the viewing geometry and brightness of…
Time-resolved spectra throughout the orbit of EF Eri during its low accretion state were obtained with the Solar Blind Channel on the Advanced Camera for Surveys onboard the Hubble Space Telescope. The overall spectral distribution exhibits…
High resolution spectral observations of the polar EF Eridani obtained in a low state with X-Shooter revealed narrow emission lines from the irradiated secondary. The lines were most prominent in the near-IR Ca2-triplet, the more intensive…
We present high-resolution, phase-resolved spectroscopic observations of the polar EF Eri, obtained with SALT and the SAAO 1.9-m telescope during its recent emergence from a three-decade-long low state. The average spectrum shows strong…
We present Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) observations of eleven intermediate polars (IPs). Spectra covering the wavelength range from 5.2 to 14 $\mu$m are presented for all eleven objects, and longer wavelength spectra are presented…
The electron cyclotron emission (ECE) in fusion devices is non-trivial to model in detail at frequencies well below the fundamental resonance where the plasma is optically thin. However, doing so is important for evaluating the background…
Low state optical photometry of EF Eri during an extended low accretion state combined with GALEX near and far UV time-resolved photometry reveals a source of UV flux that is much larger than the underlying 9500K white dwarf, and that is…
We present Very Large Array observations at 33.0 GHz that detect emission coincident with $\epsilon$ Eridani to within $0\rlap.{"}07$ (0.2 AU at the distance of this star), with a positional accuracy of $0\rlap.{"}05$. This result strongly…
Infrared spectroscopic observations of LL Andromedae and EF Eridani are presented. Our K band spectrum of LL Andromedae reveals the presence of methane absorption in the secondary star indicating an effective temperature less than 1300K,…
Ultraviolet light curves constructed from NUV and FUV detectors on GALEX reveal large amplitude variations during the orbital period of the Low Accretion Rate Polar MQ Dra (SDSSJ1553+55). This unexpected variation from a UV source is…
Context: Weak flares are supposed to be an important heating agent of the outer layers of stellar atmospheres. However, due to instrumental limitations, only large X-ray flares have been studied in detail until now. Aims: We used an…
We report on the X-ray observations of the eclipsing polar HY Eri (RX J0501-0359), along with its photometric, spectrophotometric, and spectropolarimetric optical variations, collected over 30 years. With an orbital period of 2.855 h, HY…
Low-state spectrophotometry of the short-period polar EF Eridani (Porb=81 min) found the system at V=18.0 with no trace of the companion (Wheatley and Ramsay 1998). We show that the lack of such spectral features implies that the companion…
We describe a simple and robust method using an internal reflection element acting as an infrared waveguide to measure the spectra of near-field thermal emission. We experimentally demonstrate the spectrally-narrow peaks of near-field…
Measurements of ultraviolet line fluxes from Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph and Far-Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer spectra of the K2-dwarf Epsilon Eri are reported. These are used to develop new emission measure distributions and…
We present infrared (0.97-2.45 micron) spectra of the intermediate polars PQ Gem (RE0751+14), BG CMi and EX Hya. The spectra show strong Paschen, Brackett and HeI emission lines from the accretion disc/stream. The infrared continua of PQ…
We present analyses of observations of epsilon Eridani (K2 V) made with the Low Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer on Chandra and the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer, supplemented by observations made with the Space Telescope Imaging…
