The Mid-Infrared Spectrum of the Short Orbital Period Polar EF Eridani from the Spitzer Space

We present the first mid-infrared (5.5-14.5 micron) spectrum of a highly nmagnetic cataclysmic variable, EF Eridani, obtained with the Infrared nSpectrograph on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The spectrum displays a relatively nflat, featureless continuum. A spectral energy distribution model consisting of na 9500 K white dwarf, L5 secondary star, cyclot..
