An international team of astronomers has conducted spectroscopic and photometric observations of a cataclysmic variable (CV) known as V1460 Her. Results of the study indicate that the system consists of a fast-spinning white dwarf that accretes matter from its evolved companion star. The finding is reported in a paper published August 30 on arXiv.org.
