The First Multi-Messenger Nova: External Shocks, TeV Photons, and Neutrinos in the Next Eruption of T CrB

E. Aydi, P. Craig, K. V. Sokolovsky +10

T Coronae Borealis is the most compelling anticipated Galactic recurrent nova and one of the best opportunities to test whether nova eruptions can become genuine multi-messenger tr…

What determines the -ray luminosities of classical novae?

Peter Craig, Elias Aydi, Laura Chomiuk +25

Classical novae in the Milky Way have now been well-established as high-energy GeV -ray sources. In novae with main-sequence companions, this emission is believed to result from…

Possible evidence for the 478 keV emission line from Be decay during the outburst phases of V1369 Cen

L. Izzo, T. Siegert, P. Jean +4

After decades of uncertainty about the origin of lithium, recent evidence suggests Galactic novae as its main astrophysical source. In this work, we present possible evidence for t…

The physical properties of T Pyx as measured by MUSE I. The geometrical distribution of the ejecta and the distance to the remnant

L. Izzo, L. Pasquini, E. Aydi +8

T Pyx is one of the most enigmatic recurrent novae, and it has been proposed as a potential Galactic type-Ia supernova progenitor. Using spatially-resolved data obtained with MUSE,…

Revisiting the classics: On the evolutionary origin of the "Fe II" and "He/N" spectral classes of novae

E. Aydi, L. Chomiuk, J. Strader +21

The optical spectra of novae are characterized by emission lines from the hydrogen Balmer series and either Fe II or He/N, leading to their traditional classification into two spec…

Early spectral evolution of classical novae: consistent evidence for multiple distinct outflows

E. Aydi, L. Chomiuk, L. Izzo +18

The physical mechanism driving mass ejection during a nova eruption is still poorly understood. Possibilities include ejection in a single ballistic event, a common envelope intera…
