Early spectral evolution of classical novae: consistent evidence for multiple distinct outflows
E. Aydi, L. Chomiuk, L. Izzo +18
The physical mechanism driving mass ejection during a nova eruption is still poorly understood. Possibilities include ejection in a single ballistic event, a common envelope intera…
X-ray Spectroscopy of the gamma-ray Brightest Nova V906 Car (ASASSN-18fv)
Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Koji Mukai, Laura Chomiuk +15
Shocks in gamma-ray emitting classical novae are expected to produce bright thermal and non-thermal X-rays. We test this prediction with simultaneous NuSTAR and Fermi/LAT observati…
Direct evidence for shock-powered optical emission in a nova
Elias Aydi, Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Laura Chomiuk +39
Classical novae are thermonuclear explosions that occur on the surfaces of white dwarf stars in interacting binary systems (Bode & Evans 2008). It has long been thought that the lu…
