Scientific paper

The authors point out that many of the uncertainties about the formation of accretion disks around neutron stars in winds from OB stars may be resolvable by observations of white dwarfs accreting from the winds of cool giants. Consideration of the systems Mira, SY For, ζ Cap, ζ Cyg and 56 Peg demonstrates the importance of accretion luminosity in their white dwarf companions and suggests the possibility of disks which undergo eruptions similar to those of dwarf novae.
