Active galactic nuclei as scaled-up Galactic black holes

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the accretion process is exactly the same for small and large black holes, provided that a correction is made to take account of variations in the rate of the process.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of cataclysmic variables as revealed by their donor stars

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reconstruct the complete evolutionary path followed by cataclysmic variables (CVs), based on the observed mass-radius relationship of their donor stars, using a semi-empirical CV donor sequence presented previously by one of us.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Donor Stars of Cataclysmic Variables

TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-empirical donor sequence for CVs with orbital periods less than 6 hours is presented. But the spectral types of the donor sequence are not directly compared to the observed SpTs.
