AM Herculis - Simultaneous X-ray, optical, and near-IR coverage

A 6 hour x-ray pointing at AM Her using the HEAO 1 satellite is correlated with simultaneous broad-band V and I photometry and visual circular polarimetry. The absence of correlations on either a flickering or an orbital time scale implies distinct regions for the visual and x-ray emission. Signific...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A 6 hour x-ray pointing at AM Her using the HEAO 1 satellite is correlated with simultaneous broad-band V and I photometry and visual circular polarimetry. The absence of correlations on either a flickering or an orbital time scale implies distinct regions for the visual and x-ray emission. Significant changes in the light curves are observed from one binary cycle to the next.
