Two New Nova Shells associated with V4362 Sagittarii and DO Aquilae
E. J. Harvey, M. P. Redman, P. Boumis +8
A classical nova is an eruption on the surface of a white dwarf in an accreting binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric she…
Breaking the habit - the peculiar 2016 eruption of the unique recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a
M. Henze, M. J. Darnley, S. C. Williams +70
Since its discovery in 2008, the Andromeda galaxy nova M31N 2008-12a has been observed in eruption every single year. This unprecedented frequency indicates an extreme object, with…
Deciphering the bipolar planetary nebula Abell 14 with 3D ionization and morphological studies
S. Akras, N. Clyne, P. Boumis +4
Abell 14 is a poorly studied object despite being considered a born again planetary nebula. We performed a detailed study of its 3D morphology and ionization structure using the SH…
A remarkable recurrent nova in M31 - The optical observations
M. J. Darnley, S. C. Williams, M. F. Bode +5
Context: In late November 2013 a fifth eruption in five years of the M31 recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a was announced. Aims: In this Letter we address the optical lightcurve and prog…
Rapid Dust Formation in Novae: The Speed Class - Formation Timescale Correlation Explained
S. C. Williams, M. F. Bode, M. J. Darnley +3
Observations show that the time of onset of dust formation in classical novae depends strongly on their speed class, with dust typically taking longer to form in slower novae. Usin…
