Notes. The table includes the observed and predicted ratios of cycle to orbital period, the ratio between the predicted and observed cycle, the maximum orbital period variation due to magnetic activity, the relative maximum change in the donor radius due to magnetic activity as well as the maximum modulation of the mass transfer rate due to magnetic activity. We note that, when available, we used the observed cycle period in the calculation of the mass transfer rate, while otherwise employing the model prediction. These cases are marked below with an asterisk.
