Evolution of the recent high-accretion state of the recurrent nova T CrB: HST, Swift, NuSTAR, and XMM-Newton observations

G. J. M. Luna, N. P. M. Kuin, K. Mukai +3

As the recurrent nova T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) approaches its next predicted thermonuclear eruption, it is currently exhibiting a "super-active state" (SAS) characterized by enha…

Multiple outflows and delayed ejections revealed by early imaging of novae

Elias Aydi, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +39

Novae are thermonuclear eruptions on accreting white dwarfs in interacting binaries. Although most of the accreted envelope is expelled, the mechanism -- impulsive ejection, multip…
