Interactions between stars are crucial for diverse areas of astrophysics, but they are not yet fully understood. These interactions come in forms as diverse as a direct physical collision, matter transfer from one star to another, and a "common envelope" (CE). The CE phase is a...

The X-ray spectra of intermediate polars can be modelled to give a direct measurement of white dwarf mass. Here, we fit accretion column models to NuSTAR spectra of three intermediate polars; V709 Cas, NY Lup, and V1223 Sgr in order to determine their masses. From fits to 3–78 keV spectra, we...

Radio emission from non-magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs, accreting white dwarfs) could allow detailed studies of outflows and possibly accretion flows in these nearby, numerous and non-relativistic compact accretors. Up to now, however, very few CVs have been detected in the radio. We have...
