A Recurrent Nova Super-Remnant in the Andromeda Galaxy
M. J. Darnley, R. Hounsell, T. J. O'Brien +11
Here we report that the most rapidly recurring nova, M31N 2008-12a, which erupts annually, is surrounded by a "nova super-remnant" which demonstrates that M31N 2008-12a has erupted…
M31N 2008-12a - the remarkable recurrent nova in M31: Pan-chromatic observations of the 2015 eruption
M. J. Darnley, M. Henze, M. F. Bode +52
The Andromeda Galaxy recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a had been observed in eruption ten times, including yearly eruptions from 2008-2014. With a measured recurrence period of $P_\mathr…
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…
The Nova Rate in NGC 2403
J. R. Franck, A. W. Shafter, K. Hornoch +1
A multi-epoch H-alpha survey of the late-type spiral galaxy NGC 2403 has been completed in order to determine its nova rate. A total of 9 nova candidates were discovered in 48 nigh…
Exquisite Nova Light Curves from the Solar Mass Ejection Imager (SMEI)
R. Hounsell, M. F. Bode, P. P. Hick +10
We present light curves of three classical novae (KT Eridani, V598 Puppis, V1280 Scorpii) and one recurrent nova (RS Ophiuchi) derived from data obtained by the Solar Mass Ejection…
Optical and X-ray Observations of M31N 2007-12b: An Extragalactic Recurrent Nova with a Detected Progenitor?
M. F. Bode, M. J. Darnley, A. W. Shafter +4
We report combined optical and X-ray observations of nova M31N 2007-12b. Optical spectroscopy obtained 5 days after the 2007 December outburst shows evidence of very high ejection…
