Novae: An Important Source of Lithium in the Galaxy

The Astrophysical Journal
The source of the Galactic lithium (Li) has long been a puzzle. With the discovery of Li in novae, extensive research has been conducted. However, there still exists a significant disparity between the observed abundance of Li in novae and the existing ...

New Observations of the Old Magnetic Nova GQ Muscae

Open Astronomy, 2014
Photometric observations of GQ Mus performed between 1992 and 2011 are reported. We find that the total amplitude of the orbital modulation of its brightness decreased from ~ 0.9 mag in 1992 to ~ 0.2 mag in 2010, becoming comparable to the amplitude of ...

Trace Nickel Activated Biphasic Core‐CuOii/Shell‐CuOi Secondary Microspheres Enable Room Temperature Parts‐Per‐Trillion‐Level NO2 Detection

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An idea of designing novel sensors is proposed by creating appropriate Schottky barriers and vacancies between isomorphous Core‐CuOii/ Shell‐CuOi secondary microspheres and enhancing catalytic and spill‐over effects, and electronegativity via spontaneous biphasic separation, self‐assembly, and trace‐Ni‐doping.

Comprehensive Listing of 208 Nova White Dwarf Masses as the Primary Determinant of Spectral Class and Light-curve Class

The Astrophysical Journal
For Galactic novae, I calculate and collect a comprehensive catalog of 208 measures of white dwarf (WD) masses ( M _WD ) and 232 measures of average V magnitudes in quiescence ( V _q ). These are collected into a comprehensive catalog of most fundamental

Early Photometric and Spectral Evolution of Nova Cygni 2014 (V2659 Cyg)

Open Astronomy, 2015
We present optical spectroscopic and UBV (RI)C photometric observations of Nova Cygni 2014 (V2659 Cyg) from its rebrightening to the nebular stage. After the first maximum, the nova underwent several irregular flare-like rebrightenings, with amplitudes ...

X-ray emission from optical novae in M 31

, 2009
The first supersoft source (SSS) identification with an optical nova in M 31 was based on ROSAT observations. Twenty additional X-ray counterparts (mostly identified as SSS by their hardness ratios) were detected using archival ROSAT, XMM-Newton and ...

Cu‐Based MOF/TiO2 Composite Nanomaterials for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Generation and the Role of Copper

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
HKUST‐1/TiO2 composite materials show a very high photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate which increases as a function of the irradiation time until reaching a plateau and even surpasses the performance of the 1%Pt/TiO2 material after three photocatalytic cycles.

Exploring the Archives: A Search for Novae in UVIT Snapshots of M31

The Astrophysical Journal
Extensive multiwavelength studies of novae have been carried out in our galaxy and in M31 for decades. However, UV studies of extragalactic novae are limited, especially those in quiescence.

Synthesis of C-rich dust in CO nova ourbursts [PDF]

, 2016
Context. Classical novae are thermonuclear explosions that take place in the envelopes of accreting white dwarfs in stellar binary systems. The material transferred onto the white dwarf piles up under degenerate conditions, driving a thermonuclear ...
