X-ray observations through the outburst cycle of the dwarf nova YZ Cnc.

VERBUNT F., WHEATLEY P.J. and MATTEI J.A.

Abstract (from CDS):

We have observed YZ Cnc at two day intervals from 6 to 24 April 1998, covering two full outburst cycles. The 0.1-2.4keV flux is lower during optical outburst than in quiescence, and lowest at the end of the outburst. The decline of the X-ray flux in the quiescent interval appears to be in contrast to prediction of simple models for accretion-disk instabilities. Variability on ∼hour time scales is present, but appears not related to the orbital phase. YZ Cnc was less luminous in X-rays during our 1998 observations than in earlier ROSAT observations.
