A Review of the Classical Nova Outburst [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1987 AbstractWe review the recent observational and theoretical studies of the nova outburst. The observational studies have not only identified a new class of novae but theoretical simulations of this class have been found to be in excellent agreement with the observations.

Theory of Nova Outbursts and Type Ia Supernovae
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015 We briefly review the current theoretical understanding of the light curves of novae. These curves exhibit a homologous nature, dubbed the universal decline law, and when time-normalized, they almost follow a single curve independently of the white dwarf

Theoretical Light-curve Models of the Symbiotic Nova CN Cha—Optical Flat Peak for 3 Yr
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 CN Cha is a slow symbiotic nova characterized by a 3 yr long optical flat peak followed by a rapid decline. We present theoretical light curves for CN Cha, based on hydrostatic approximation, and estimate the white-dwarf (WD) mass to be ∼0.6 M _☉ for a ...

IDENTIFYING AND QUANTIFYING RECURRENT NOVAE MASQUERADING AS CLASSICAL NOVAE [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 Recurrent novae (RNe) are cataclysmic variables with two or more nova eruptions within a century. Classical novae (CNe) are similar systems with only one such eruption. Many of the so-called 'CNe' are actually RNe for which only one eruption has been discovered.

AT Cnc: A SECOND DWARF NOVA WITH A CLASSICAL NOVA SHELL [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 We are systematically surveying all known and suspected Z Cam-type dwarf novae for classical nova shells. This survey is motivated by the discovery of the largest known classical nova shell, which surrounds the archetypal dwarf nova Z Camelopardalis.

Understanding the cosmic abundance of 22Na: Lifetime measurements in 23Mg [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 Simulations of explosive nucleosynthesis in novae predict the production of 22Na, a key astronomical observable to constrain nova models. Its gamma-ray line at 1.275 MeV has not yet been observed by the gamma-ray space telescopes.
