TLDR
A brief review of the present status of X-ray emission from Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (MCVs) is given in this article, followed by a presentation of some of the properties of the two types of MCVs as seen in X-rays.Abstract:
I present a brief review of the present status of X-ray emissi
on from Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (MCVs). A short introduction to the types of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) is followed by a presentation of some of the properties of the two types of MCVs - Polars and Intermediate Polars (IPs) as seen in X-rays. Finally X-ray spectra of MCVs and future prospects of their studies are discussed.read more
