The system is 65 11 parsecs distant, making EX Hya one of the closest cataclysmic variable stars.

Modern astronomy recognizes that guest stars are manifestations of cataclysmic variable stars: novae and supernovae.

DQ Herculis is the prototype for a category of cataclysmic variable stars called intermediate polars.

'Cataclysmic variable stars' ('CV') are stars which irregularly increase in brightness by a large factor, then drop back down to a quiescent state.

Other systems which often contain polar jets include cataclysmic variable stars, X-ray binaries and T Tauri stars.

From 2000 to 2004, he refined the software, and also adapted it for use in supernova surveys, cataclysmic variable star photometry, and trans-Neptunian object surveys.

It has been found that the reputed cataclysmic variable star CV Aquarii, discovered in 1934, was actually a misidentification of 52 Europa.

In most cataclysmic variable stars, matter from a main-sequence companion star is gravitationally stripped by a white dwarf star in the form of an accretion disk.

Thus, GK Persei has seemed to change from a classical nova like Nova Aquilae 1918, to more recently resemble a typical dwarf nova-type cataclysmic variable star.

NN Serpentis (abbreviated NN Ser) is an eclipsing binary system approximately 1670 light-years away, likely forming a cataclysmic variable star.

This star, along with the star AN Ursae Majoris, is the prototype for a category of cataclysmic variable stars called polars, or AM Her type stars.

HUT was used to observe a wide range of astrophysical sources, including supernova remnants, active galactic nuclei, cataclysmic variable stars, as well as various planets in our Solar System.
