Figure 1: The light curves of MU Cam, obtained simultaneously on March 31, 2005, by XMM (PN and OM) and with the AIP 70 cm-telescope (R). The data shown here are binned in time, 60 s for the first, second, and forth panel (counted from top to bottom), 120 s for the lower two. The R-band data are unbinned. |

Figure 5: The spectral energy distribution of MU Cam. Shown are the data synchronously obtained in 2005 (rhombs and X-ray model spectrum in black), the data from 2006 (XMM-Newton: circle and X-ray model spectrum in red, R-band flux from the 70 cm telescope: triangle), and, additionally, 2MASS J, H, and K fluxes ( squares) plus the optical spectra from Araujo-Betancor et al. (2003) ( lower) and Wei et al. (1999) ( upper). Additionally, the three data points from the INTEGRAL/IBIS spectrum (Barlow et al. 2006) are plotted with their corresponding error bars. The X-ray models are plotted without the interstellar absorption component. To illustrate the shape of the black body component in the X-rays, the extrapolation to lower energies outside the fitted range is plotted with dots. |

Figure 8: The spin-folded PN light curves from for 700-12 000 eV ( MHX) and 200-700 eV ( SX). For the calculation of the spin-phase, we use as zero points the epochs of maximum flux in the MHX band determined in Sect. 4.2 and the period from Staude et al. (2003). The error bars in the light curves mark the standard deviation of the values having entered the bin. Below are plotted the spin-phase dependent parameter values for the fit to phase-selected MOS+PN spectra. The parameters not shown here were kept constant at the values determined from the fit to the average spectrum. Left: March 31, 2005, right: April 06, 2006. |
