[Aavso-photometry] Book on CV

[Tomas L. Gomez]

Hi,

Can someone recommend a book on CV's?. I observe these stars
regularly, and I am curious to know more about the Physics that
is involved in them, the different types of CV's, the proposed models,
etc... I have been googling around, but I would like to have a book
which collects the basics explained with some detail.

The kind of questions I would like to see discussed are things like: what
causes superhumps (versus normal humps?), is the mass transfer
constant in time?, if not: why not?, is it related to oscillations of the
red dwarf?, what causes the outbursts?, is the cause of the outburst
always the same or does it depend on the class of CV?, what are the
differences between outbursts and superoutbursts?, are dwarf novae,
recurrent novae, classical novae and supernovae of type I physically
different, or are they the same, but only differ in the time scale and
amplitude of the outbursts?, etc...

Thanks,
