What determines the -ray luminosities of classical novae?
Peter Craig, Elias Aydi, Laura Chomiuk +25
Classical novae in the Milky Way have now been well-established as high-energy GeV -ray sources. In novae with main-sequence companions, this emission is believed to result fro…
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…
XRISM/Resolve reveals the complex iron structure of NGC 7213: Evidence for radial stratification between inner disk and broad-line region
E. Kammoun, T. Kawamuro, K. Murakami +48
We present the first high-resolution X-ray spectrum of NGC 7213 obtained with XRISM/Resolve, supported by simultaneous XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, and SOAR optical data. The XRISM spectrum…
Revisiting the Classics: On the Optical Colours of Novae as Standard Crayons
Peter Craig, Elias Aydi, Laura Chomiuk +9
We present a systematic study of the colours of novae over the course of their eruptions. Where possible, interstellar reddening was measured using the equivalent widths of…
TESS photometry of the nova eruption in V606 Vul: asymmetric photosphere and multiple ejections?
Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Elias Aydi, Konstantin Malanchev +70
Lightcurves of many classical novae deviate from the canonical "fast rise - smooth decline" pattern and display complex variability behavior. We present the first TESS-space-photom…
Spectral Insights and Evolutionary Pathways of Globular Cluster ULX in NGC 1399: A Two-Decade X-ray and Optical Study
Kwangmin Oh, Kristen C. Dage, Alexey Bobrick +9
We present new multi-wavelength observations of two ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) hosted by globular clusters (GCs) in the giant elliptical NGC 1399, focusing on CXO J0338318-…
