Description and Table of Contents

Description

These proceedings present observational and theoretical results on cataclysmic variables (CVs). Main topics include: interrelations among CVs; theory and evolution of classical, recurrent, symbiotic novae; dwarf novae, nova-like and accretion-induced phenomena; the role of magnetic fields in CV evolution; CVs as possible precursors of SNI-a; and links between CVs and super-soft X-ray sources. The work should be useful for astronomers interested in cataclysmic variables.

Table of Contents

1: Observational Overview. Classical Novae. Recurrent and Symbiotic Novae. CVs. 2: Individual Objects. 3: Thermonuclear Runaways. 4: Spectral Evolution of Novae and Problems in Nebular Physics. 5: Accretion Induced Phenomena. 6: The Role of Magnetic Fields. 7: Supersoft X-Ray Sources and their Relation to CVs. 8: Evolution and Evolutionary Links.
