The case for jets in cataclysmic variables
DL Coppejans, C Knigge - New Astronomy Reviews, 2020 - Elsevier
For decades cataclysmic variables (CVs) were thought to be one of the few classes of
accreting compact objects to not launch jets, and have consequently been used to constrain …

Towards a holistic magnetic braking model from the evolution of cataclysmic variables to stellar spin-down–I: the spin-down of fully convective M-dwarfs
We extend a magnetic braking (MB) model, which has been used earlier to address the
evolution of cataclysmic variables, to address the spin period P spin evolution of fully …
