Michael M. Shara, David Zurek, Bradley E. Schaefer +8
T Pyxidis is the only recurrent nova surrounded by knots of material ejected in previous outbursts. Following the eruption that began on 2011 April 14.29, we obtained seven epochs…
Dynamical Fragmentation of the T Pyxidis Nova Shell During Recurrent Eruptions
Jayashree Toraskar, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Michael M. Shara +1
Hubble Space Telescope} images of the ejecta surrounding the nova T Pyxidis resolve the emission into more than two thousand bright knots. We simulate the dynamical evolution of th…
