Extract

Since the discovery of variable circular and linear polarisation in VV Puppis (Tapia 1977), several investigators have observed the system. The new observations particularly of polarisation (Liebert et al. 1978, Liebert and Stockman 1979 have ruled out the standard dwarf nova (accretion disc — hot spot) model previously used to interpret the light curve of VV Puppis.
