We point out that the strong magnetic field of the white dwarf in these systems can under certain conditions prevent material from flowing through the L1 point operating as a “magnetospheric gate”. Using some best studied polars as an example we show that the conditions in which the flow through the L1 point is suppressed can be satisfied. A discussion on an alternative mass-exchange mechanism in this situation appears to be quite reasonable.","PeriodicalId":171274,"journal":{"name":"Publications of the Pulkovo Observatory","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115238248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the estimates of the change in the value of the asteroid’s proper rotation period obtained in (Melnikov, 2022) due to its approaches to the planets, the influence of such events on the further orbital dynamics of an asteroid through the Yarkovsky effect is considered. It is shown that close encounters with the planets of small asteroids (tens of meters in diameter) with fast rotation (proper rotation period less than 10 h), leading to a change in the asteroid rotation period by several hours, can change the magnitude of the Yarkovsky effect by 30–50%.","PeriodicalId":171274,"journal":{"name":"Publications of the Pulkovo Observatory","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128015762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
