Scientific paper

We present the results of our analysis of RXTE observations of two cataclysmic variables, VW Hyi and WW Cet as they undergo outbursts. By comparing the fluxes measured in three different energy ranges of X-rays to previous campaigns on VW Hyi and SS Cyg, we note several similarities and differences between the campaigns. We also compare the measured luminosities and accretion rates to these campaigns and investigate the change in soft X-ray emissions and hard X-ray emissions during our analysis of the outbursts. Finally, we discuss the relatively quick decline and return of X-rays as the stars transition into and out of outburst.
