Time Domain Astrophysics Stephen Potter South African Astronomical Observatory

Overview What is Time Domain Astrophysics (Astrotomography)?  Variability in Interacting Binaries Cataclysmic Variables  Doppler Tomography  Roche Tomography  Stokes Imaging  Eclipse Mapping SALT first Science  High speed CCD photometry 2

Variability in Interacting Binaries –Accretion onto WD in CVs –P orb : minutes – hours –P spin : tens of seconds –Mass accretion events/ outbursts : months –Magnetic cycles : years – decades –WD/inner disc dominate soft X-ray, UV (SALT strength) –Outer disc emission mostly in optical –Mass donor reveals itself in the red/IR –For X-ray binaries (NS/BH)  keV/MeV emission + –variability as fast as milliseconds 3
