Nova Outbursts on Rotating Oblate White Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1996
Observations of spatially resolved nova shells and reconstructions from emission line profiles show that a ring/blob asymmetry in the ejecta of novae is very common (Martin 1989). The polar blobs expand more rapidly than the equatorial rings, giving the ejecta an overall prolate geometry.Observations of the formation of carbonaceous and silicate dusts ...

A Phenomenon Resembling Early Superhumps in a New SU UMa-type Dwarf Nova with a 2 hr Orbital Period

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We investigate K2BS5, an optical transient that we identified in Campaign 13 of the Kepler/K2 archives by the K2 Background Survey, and classify it as a new SU UMa-type dwarf nova.

X-Ray Flashes on Helium Novae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A helium nova occurs on a white dwarf (WD) accreting hydrogen-deficient matter from a helium star companion. When the mass of a helium envelope on the WD reaches a critical value, unstable helium burning ignites to trigger a nova outburst.

Binary Parameters for the Recurrent Nova T Coronae Borealis

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
T CrB is among the brightest novae. It is recurrent with outbursts happening approximately every 80 yr. The next outburst is imminent, expected in 2025. The T CrB binary consists of an M4 III red giant (RG) secondary and a white dwarf (WD) primary.

The Long-term Activity of the Postnovae Q Cygni and BK Lyncis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We show the postnova activity of Q Cyg (Nova Cyg 1876) and BK Lyn (probable Nova Lyn 101). We use both CCD and photographic photometric observations.
