A Theory for the Maximum Magnitude versus Rate of Decline (MMRD) Relation of Classical Novae
Izumi Hachisu, Hideyuki Saio, Mariko Kato +2
We propose a theory for the MMRD relation of novae, using free-free emission model light curves built on the optically thick wind theory. We calculated for va…
The January 2016 eruption of recurrent nova LMC 1968
N. P. M. Kuin, K. L. Page, P. Mróz +23
We present a comprehensive review of all observations of the eclipsing recurrent Nova LMC 1968 in the Large Magellanic Cloud which was previously observed in eruption in 1968, 1990…
On a century of extragalactic novae and the rise of the rapid recurrent novae
Matthew J. Darnley, Martin Henze
Novae are the observable outcome of a transient thermonuclear runaway on the surface of an accreting white dwarf in a close binary system. Their high peak luminosity renders them v…
AT 2017fvz: a nova in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822
M. W. Healy, M. J. Darnley, C. M. Copperwheat +7
A transient in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 (Barnard's Galaxy) was discovered on 2017 August 2 and is only the second classical nova discovered in that galaxy. W…
Photometric Observations of the 2017 Outburst of Recurrent Nova M31N 2007-10b
Quentin J. Socia, Martin Henze, Allen W. Shafter +1
M31 is an ideal laboratory for observing and studying recurrent novae. To date, there have been 18 recurrent nova discovered in M31, six of which have recurrence periods less than…
Multiwavelength observations of V407 Lupi (ASASSN-16kt) --- a very fast nova erupting in an intermediate polar
E. Aydi, M. Orio, A. P. Beardmore +19
We present a detailed study of the 2016 eruption of nova V407 Lupi (ASASSN-16kt), including optical, near-infrared, X-ray, and ultraviolet data from SALT, SMARTS, SOAR, Chandra, Sw…
