T CrB: overview of the accretion history, Roche-lobe filling, orbital solution, and radiative modeling
U. Munari, F. Walter, N. Masetti +14
(abridged) We aim to derive a robust estimate of the most important parameters describing the physical nature of T CrB, trace the accretion history onto its white dwarf, and accoun…
Gas phase SiO in the circumstellar environment of the recurrent nova T Coronae Borealis
A. Evans, Ya. V. Pavlenko, D. P. K. Banerjee +9
We report the discovery of the diatomic molecule SiO in the gas phase in the environment of the recurrent nova T Coronae Borealis. While some of the SiO is photospheric, a substant…
The 2016 outburst of the unique symbiotic star MWC 560 (= V694 Mon), its long-term BVRI evolution and a marked 331 days periodicity
U. Munari, S. Dallaporta, F. Castellani +8
After 26 years from the major event of 1990, in early 2016 the puzzling symbiotic binary MWC 560 has gone into a new and even brighter outburst. We present our tight BVRI photometr…
The 2015 super-active state of recurrent nova T CrB and the long term evolution after the 1946 outburst
U. Munari, S. Dallaporta, G. Cherini
The recurrent nova T CrB has entered in 2015 a phase of unprecedented high activity. To trace something equivalent, it is necessary to go back to 1938, before the last nova eruptio…
Outburst evolution, historic light curve and a flash-ionized nebula around the WZ Sge-type object PNV J03093063+2638031
U. Munari, R. Jurdana-Sepic, P. Ochner +1
We have monitored the 2014 superoutburst of the WZ Sge-type transient PNV J03093063+2638031 for more than four months, from V=11.0 maximum brightness down to V=18.4 mag, close to q…
Study of three 2013 novae: V1830 Aql, V556 Ser and V809 Cep
U. Munari, P. Ochner, S. Dallaporta +7
BVRI photometry and low-, medium- and high-resolution Echelle fluxed spectroscopy is presented and discussed for three faint, heavily reddened novae of the FeII-type which erupted…
