Scientific paper

We unexpectedly discovered evidence, based upon two GHRS G160M spectra, of greatly elevated abundances of odd-numbered nuclei Phosphorus and Aluminum as well as a Nitrogen to Carbon ratio of 10 in the photosphere of the white dwarf in the dwarf nova VW Hy ons and determine the first chem ical abundances of many odd-numbered proton capture species; {2} determine a accurate mass for the white dwarf and; {3} probe changes in the accretion belt and surface abundances as a function of time since a superoutburst. This study will hold important
