DQ Herculis in Profile: Whole Earth Telescope Observations and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Simulations of an Edge‐on Cataclysmic Variable System
DQ Herculis was the Summer 1997 WET northern-hemisphere primary target. The O-C phase diagram of the 71-s signal reveals out-of-eclipse phase variations resulting from the self eclipses of a nearly edge-on, non-axisymmetric disc. We work the forward problem of simulating DQ Herculis numerically using the method of smoothed particle hydrodynamics …
