A study of the amplitude distribution and an estimate of the outburst frequency of these new dwarf novae and those discovered by the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey (CRTS) indicates that besides systems that are faint because they are farther away, there also exists a population of intrinsically faint dwarf novae with rare outbursts.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-19T08:41:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "data mining", "catalina real-time transient survey", "dwarf nova candidates", "cross matching blue objects", "astrometric catalogues usno-b1" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Wiley-Blackwell", "journal": "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society", "year": 2010, "month": "Feb", "volume": 402, "number": 1, "pages": 436 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 834274, "adsabs": "2010MNRAS.402..436W" } } }
