Shocks in the Symbiotic Recurrent Nova V3890 Sgr: VLBI Radio Imaging and Fermi GeV Gamma-Rays
Isabella Molina, Peter Craig, Rebecca Diesing +14
We present very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) radio imaging and Fermi/LAT GeV -ray observations of the 2019 eruption of the symbiotic recurrent nova V3890 Sgr.The VLBI i…
Near-infrared spectroscopy of RS Ophiuchi in 2021: the calm, the storm, and the abatement
C. E. Woodward, A. Evans, D. P. K. Banerjee +4
We present near-infrared (NIR) observations of the 2021 eruption of the recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi. The dataset provides both pre- and post-eruption perspectives on the eruption, a…
Multiple outflows and delayed ejections revealed by early imaging of novae
Elias Aydi, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +39
Novae are thermonuclear eruptions on accreting white dwarfs in interacting binaries. Although most of the accreted envelope is expelled, the mechanism -- impulsive ejection, multip…
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of the Recurrent Nova M31N 2008-12a
D. P. K. Banerjee, T. R. Geballe, A. Evans +3
Near infrared (NIR) 0.9--2.5m spectra of the remarkable recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a were obtained on days 6.3 and 10.3 after discovery of its 2024 outburst, and are the first…
Hydrodynamic Predictions for the Next Outburst of T Coronae Borealis: It will be the Brightest Classical or Recurrent Nova Ever Observed in X-rays
S. Starrfield, M. Bose, C. E. Woodward +11
T Coronae Borealis (TCrB) is a recurrent nova (RN) with recorded outbursts in 1866, and 1946 and possible outbursts in 1217 and 1787. It is predicted to explode again in 2025 or 20…
Near-infrared spectroscopy of the LMC recurrent nova LMCN 1968-12a
A. Evans, D. P. K. Banerjee, T. R. Geballe +5
We have obtained near-infrared (m) spectra of the recurrent nova LMCN 1968-12a on two occasions during its 2024 August eruption. This is the first near-infrared spectr…
