The hybrid Nova Vul 2024 (=V615 Vul)
Paolo Valisa, Ulisse Munari, Irene Albanese
We present daily optical, absolute-fluxed spectroscopy of the heavily reddened Nova Vul 2024 (=V615 Vul), obtained in both low- and high-resolution echelle modes from discovery on…
Newborn jet in the symbiotic system R Aquarii
T. Liimets, D. P. K. Banerjee, M. Santander-GarcÃa +12
R Aquarii (R Aqr) is a well-known symbiotic binary that has attracted renewed interest during its recent periastron passage, an event that occurs only once every about 40 years. Th…
T CrB: overview of the accretion history, Roche-lobe filling, orbital solution, and radiative modeling
U. Munari, F. Walter, N. Masetti +14
(abridged) We aim to derive a robust estimate of the most important parameters describing the physical nature of T CrB, trace the accretion history onto its white dwarf, and accoun…
Optical and X-ray timing analysis of the 2018-2020 outburst and rebrightening of the black-hole transient MAXI J1820+070
M. Fiori, L. Zampieri, A. Burtovoi +15
We report the results of a comprehensive analysis of the multiwavelength (in optical and X-rays) and multitimescale (from months to tenths of a second) variability of the 2018-2020…
Optical and Near-infrared Observations of SN 2023ixf for over 600 days after the Explosion
Gaici Li, Xiaofeng Wang, Yi Yang +37
Context.We present a comprehensive photometric and spectroscopic study of the nearby Type II supernova (SN) 2023ixf, with our extensive observations spanning the phases from ~3 to…
High-resolution imaging of the evolving bipolar outflows in symbiotic novae: The case of the RSOphiuchi 2021 nova outburst
R. Lico, M. Giroletti, U. Munari +6
The recurrent and symbiotic nova RS Ophiuchi (RSOph) underwent a new outburst phase during August 2021, about 15 years after the last event that occurred in 2006. This outburst rep…
