The instantaneous mass accretion rate of novae in quiescence: - an archival ultraviolet optical spectral analysis
Patrick Godon, Edward M. Sion, Tim Naylor +1
Based on archival spectra, we derive the quiescent instantaneous mass transfer rates in novae using synthetic disk spectra generated with tlusty, Gaia parallax-derived distances, a…
High Resolution X-ray Spectroscopy of the Nova-Like Cataclysmic Variable BZ Cam using Chandra HETG: Diagnosis of the ADAF-like (Advective) Hot Flow
Solen Balman, Eric M. Schlegel, Patrick Godon +2
Nova-likes such as BZ Cam are high state Cataclysmic Variables showing hard X-ray emission that can be characterized with advective hot flows in the inner accretion disk. We explor…
X-ray Spectroscopy of the Dwarf Nova Z Chamaeleontis in Quiescence and Outburst Using the XMM-Newton Observatory
Solen Balman, Eric M. Schlegel, Patrick Godon +1
We present X-ray spectroscopy of the SU UMa-type dwarf nova (DN) Z Cha using the EPIC and RGS instruments onboard the XMM-Newton Observatory. The quiescent system can be modeled by…
The Accelerating Decline of the Mass Transfer Rate in the Recurrent Nova T Pyxidis
P. Godon, E. M. Sion, R. E. Williams +3
The recurrent nova T Pyxidis has erupted six times since 1890, with its last outburst in 2011, and the relatively short recurrence time between classical nova explosions indicates…
Characterizing the Advective Hot Flows of Nova-Like Cataclysmic Variables in the X-rays: The case of BZ Cam and V592 Cas
Şölen Balman, Eric M. Schlegel, Patrick Godon
We present a joint spectral analysis of ROSAT PSPC, Swift XRT, and NuSTAR FPMA/B data of the nova-like (NL) cataclysmic variables (CVs), BZ Cam and V592 Cas in the 0.1-78.0 keV ban…
Hubble Space Telescope STIS Spectroscopy of Nova T Aurigae 1891
Conor Larsen, Patrick Godon, Edward Sion
T Aurigae is an eclipsing old nova which exploded in 1891. At a Gaia EDR3 distance of 815-871 pc, it is a relatively nearby old nova. Through ultraviolet spectral modeling and usin…
