Low-metallicity Nova Explosions: A Site for Weak rp-process Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Classical novae are common cataclysmic events involving a binary system of a white dwarf and a main-sequence or red giant companion star. In metal-poor environments, these explosions produce ejecta differently from their solar counterparts due to the ...

Recent progress in understanding the eruptions of classical novae [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Dramatic progress has occurred in the last two decades in understanding the physical processes and events leading up to, and transpiring during the eruption of a classical nova.

Calcium Excess in Novae: Beyond Nuclear Physics Uncertainties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examine Ca abundances in classical novae from spectroscopic observations spanning 65 yr and investigate whether they are systematically high compared to those predicted by nova models.

Fundamental Properties of Novae in M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The peak luminosities and rates of decline for a large sample of novae recently published by Clark et al. have been analyzed using the Yaron et al. nova models to estimate fundamental properties of the M31 nova population.

High-resolution Simulations of the Interaction between the Nova/Supernova Ejecta and the Accretion Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Many nova and Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) explosion scenarios involve accretion disks. However, direct numerical simulations of these explosive phenomena have barely addressed the question of the impact of ejecta−disk collision on the midterm evolution of ...

Observations of classical novae in outburst [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The IUE obtained ultraviolet data on novae in outburst. The characteristics of every one of the outbursts are different. Optical and infrared data on many of the same novae were also obtained.

Models of classical and recurrent novae [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The behavior of novae may be divided roughly into two separate stages: quiescence and outburst. However, at closer inspection, both stages cannot be separated. It should be attempted to explain features in both stages with a similar model. Various simple
