Bibinfo (this paper at ADS): de Martino, D., Matt, G., Mukai, K., Bonnet-Bidaud, J.-M., Gaensicke, B.T., Gonzalez Perez, J.M., Haberl, F., Mouchet, M., Solheim, J.-E. 2005, A&A 437, 935-945.
Type: Observational: X-ray photometry & spectroscopy and optical photometry.
Object(s): HT Cam.
Results: Detection of the 515 s in X-rays confirms the IP nature of HT Cam. Optical/UV pulses are in phase with the X-rays, hence they originate in the accretion curtain. White dwarf heating appears not to be important. X-ray spectrum is from multi-temperature plasma, and photoelectric absorption is weak. HT Cam is the third IP below the gap with low accretion rate.
