Hydrogen Burning of 17-O in Classical Novae
A. Chafa, V. Tatischeff, P. Aguer +10
We report on the observation of a previously unknown resonance at E=194.1+/-0.6 keV (lab) in the 17-O(p,alpha)14-N reaction, with a measured resonance strength omega_gamma(p,alpha)…
Reevaluation of the Na(p,) reaction rate: Implications for the detection of Na gamma rays from novae
D. G. Jenkins, C. J. Lister, R. V. F. Janssens +8
Understanding the processes which create and destroy Na is important for diagnosing classical nova outbursts. Conventional Na(p,) studies are complicated by the ne…
The frequency of occurrence of novae hosting an ONe white dwarf
P. Gil-Pons, E. Garcia-Berro, J. Jose +2
In this paper, we revisit the problem of the determination of the frequency of occurrence of galactic nova outbursts which involve an oxygen-neon (ONe) white dwarf. The improvement…
The 21Na(p,gamma)22Mg Reaction and Oxygen-Neon Novae
S. Bishop, R. E. Azuma, L. Buchmann +25
The 21Na(p,gamma)22Mg reaction is expected to play an important role in the nucleosynthesis of 22Na in Oxygen-Neon novae. The decay of 22Na leads to the emission of a characteristi…
The prompt gamma-ray emission of novae
M. Hernanz, J. Gomez-Gomar, J. Jose
Classical novae are potential gamma-ray emitters, because of the disintegration of some radioactive nuclei synthesized during the explosion. Some short-lived isotopes (such as 13N…
Gamma-ray signatures of classical novae
M. Hernanz, J. Gomez-Gomar, J. Jose
The role of classical novae as potential gamma-ray emitters is reviewed, on the basis of theoretical models of the gamma-ray emission from different nova types. The interpretation…
