Andromeda
Z Andromedae star
Z Andromedae star A type of cataclysmic variable with irregular brightness fluctuations, exhibiting the spectra typical of a hot star (20 000 K), a cool star (3000 K), and extended nebulosity excited by radiation from the hot component; abbr. ZAND. Interaction occurs either through mass transfer or a stellar wind from the cool giant secondary. Currently, a heterogeneous collection of objects is classified by this type (often known as
symbiotic stars), including the
symbiotic novae (
RR Telescopii stars), and stars with an
accretion disk and jets, such as R Aquarii.
