Notes. Porb is the orbital period,
M1 and M2 the primary and
secondary masses respectively, Rd,max
the maximum disc radius, W the observed outburst width,
τdeco the observed decay rate, and
the theoretical (Eq. (7)) decay rate
for αh = 0.2. Rows: 1−8: U Gem stars
from Ak et al. (2002), 9−13: U Gem stars
with τdec calculated by authors from light-curves from
AFOEV database, 14−20: SU UMa stars from Ak et al.
(2002), 21: AM CVn star from Levitan et al.
(2011); Porb, M1
and M2 are taken from Ritter & Kolb (2003);
Rd,max is calculated according to
Eqs. (1), (2).
