Blob accretion in AM Herculis systems.

S. J. Litchfield, Andrew R. King

Abstract

Les distributions self-coherentes de la temperature sont calculees sous l'hypothese de l'equilibre hydrostatique pour l'atmosphere d'une naine blanche dans une binaire AM Herculis sur laquelle s'est accrete un amas discret de matiere. On montre que la surface derivee de cette structure en temperature ne reproduit pas les courbes de lumiere RX caracteristiques de l'etat RX anormal de AM Herculis.
