When will T Coronae Borealis next erupt as a nova? Constraints from recurrence, orbital phase, and accretion-state evolution
Songpeng Pei, Xiaowan Zhang, Renzhi Su +6
T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) is the nearest symbiotic recurrent nova and is now intensively monitored for its next eruption. We combine three constraints on the eruption time: histor…

Lack of Significant Orbital-Phase Locking in the Active Phases of the Recurrent Nova T CrB
Songpeng Pei, Xiaowan Zhang, Renzhi Su +6
T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) is a symbiotic recurrent nova (RN) that exhibits both nova eruptions and long-term active phases resembling superoutbursts and normal outbursts. Motivate…
