Abstract: |
The SDSS sample of cataclysmic cariables uncovered for the first time the
period minimum spike predicted by models of binary evolution. Serious
discrepancies between observations and theoretical models still remain,
however. Here we give a brief summary of the current status of our SDSS
follow-up work and discuss an ongoing project to extend the SDSS sample of
CVs to even fainter magnitudes. |
