Overview

Detailed timing analysis finds new spin and orbital periods in two cataclysmic variables, suggesting unique accretion behavior.

Key Points

  • Classification of [PK2008] HalphaJ115927 and IGR J14091-610 as intermediate polars supports unique behaviors in both systems.
  • Analysis yields distinct periods: 7.20 h and 576.63 s for HalphaJ115927, indicating possible disc precession effects.
  • Accretion primarily occurs via a disc in both cataclysmic variables, influencing spin modulation patterns.
  • A notable modulation at 5.66 d in HalphaJ115927 suggests additional periodic influences beyond typical signals.
