Optical and soft X-ray light-curve analysis during the 2022 eruption of U Scorpii: structural changes in the accretion disk

Katsuki Muraoka, Naoto Kojiguchi, Junpei Ito +52

We present our optical photometric observations of the 2022 eruption of the recurrent nova U Scorpii (U Sco) using 49,152 data points over 70 d following the optical peak. We have…

The Rise and Fall of the King: The Correlation between FO Aquarii's Low States and the White Dwarf's Spindown

Colin Littlefield, Peter Garnavich, Mark R. Kennedy +45

The intermediate polar FO Aquarii (FO Aqr) experienced its first-reported low-accretion states in 2016, 2017, and 2018, and using newly available photographic plates, we identify p…

The KIC 8462852 Light Curve From 2015.75 to 2018.18 Shows a Variable Secular Decline

Bradley E. Schaefer, Rory O. Bentley, Tabetha S. Boyajian +19

The star KIC 8462852 (Boyajian's Star) displays both fast dips of up to 20% on time scales of days, plus long-term secular fading by up to 19% on time scales from a year to a centu…

Return of the King: Time-Series Photometry of FO Aquarii's Initial Recovery from its Unprecedented 2016 Low State

Colin Littlefield, Peter Garnavich, Mark R. Kennedy +28

In 2016 May, the intermediate polar FO~Aqr was detected in a low state for the first time in its observational history. We report time-resolved photometry of the system during its…

Eclipses During the 2010 Eruption of the Recurrent Nova U Scorpii

Bradley E. Schaefer, Ashley Pagnotta, Aaron LaCluyze +34

The eruption of the recurrent nova U Scorpii on 28 January 2010 is now the all-time best observed nova event. We report 36,776 magnitudes throughout its 67 day eruption, for an ave…

Discovery of the 2010 Eruption and the Pre-Eruption Light Curve for Recurrent Nova U Scorpii

Bradley E. Schaefer, Ashley Pagnotta, Limin Xiao +12

We report the discovery by B. G. Harris and S. Dvorak on JD 2455224.9385 (2010 Jan 28.4385 UT) of the predicted eruption of the recurrent nova U Scorpii (U Sco). We also report on…
