Hi,
WX Hyi has just shown the following sequence of events in succession
1. normal outburst
2. superoutburst
3. another normal (?) outburst, ongoing at this moment.
Phases 1 and 2 do occur in succession with other systems too.
However event 3 seems a bit out of phase. The going theory spells that the
superoutburst is the 'complete cleaning' phase, iow all H is burned away.
What happens to WX Hyi then for it still to have another outburst? Is it
unstable mass transfer by the secondary triggered by the past s/outburst or is
it due to another unrelated activity?
Do I hear 'flickering'?
Regards,
Berto Monard
