About article:
Wickramasinghe et al. (2014) and Briggs et al. (2015) have proposed that the strong
magnetic fields observed in some single white dwarfs (MWDs) are
formed by an α—Ω dynamo driven by differential rotation
when two stars, the more massive one with a degenerate core, merge
during common envelope (CE) evolution (Ferrario et al., 2015b). We
synthesise a population of binaries to investigate if fields in the
magnetic cataclysmic variables (MCVs) may also originate during
stellar interaction in the CE phase.
