Description

Various characteristics are compared and summarized for a group of composite spectrum stars which have strong H alpha emission and peculiar satellite UV spectra. Spectroscopic periods and photometric variability are now defined for most of these systems. Compared with normal non-interacting composite spectrum binaries, they exhibit excess flux in the middle UV region. This is believed to indicate the presence of an accretion disk
