Do cataclysmic variables produce jets?
Abstract
It is believed that CVs do not produce jets unlike other, more massive interactive binaries. Here we present spectrophotometric observations of the super-outburst of V455 And. We show here that a strong wind perpendicular the the accretion disc at the maximum of the super-otburst, i.e a jet, can probably explain the observed spectroscopic behavior of this system.
