Classical Novae at Radio Wavelengths

Laura Chomiuk, Justin D. Linford, Elias Aydi +20

We present radio observations (1--40 GHz) for 36 classical novae, representing data from over five decades compiled from the literature, telescope archives, and our own programs. O…

X-ray evolution of the nova V959 Mon suggests a delayed ejection and a non-radiative shock

Thomas Nelson, Koji Mukai, Laura Chomiuk +7

X-ray observations of shocked gas in novae can provide a useful probe of the dynamics of the ejecta. Here we report on X-ray observations of the nova V959 Mon, which was also detec…

A Nova Outburst Powered by Shocks

Kwan-Lok Li, Brian D. Metzger, Laura Chomiuk +13

Classical novae are runaway thermonuclear burning events on the surfaces of accreting white dwarfs in close binary star systems, sometimes appearing as new naked-eye sources in the…

The Peculiar Multi-Wavelength Evolution Of V1535 Sco

J. D. Linford, L. Chomiuk, T. Nelson +8

We present multi-wavelength observations of the unusual nova V1535 Sco throughout its outburst in 2015. Early radio observations were consistent with synchrotron emission, and earl…

1FGL J1417.7-4407: A likely gamma-ray bright binary with a massive neutron star and a giant secondary

Jay Strader, Laura Chomiuk, C. C. Cheung +12

We present multiwavelength observations of the persistent Fermi-LAT unidentified gamma-ray source 1FGL J1417.7-4407, showing it is likely to be associated with a newly discovered X…

Gamma-ray novae as probes of relativistic particle acceleration at non-relativistic shocks

Brian D. Metzger, Thomas Finzell, Indrek Vurm +3

The Fermi LAT discovery that classical novae produce >100 MeV gamma-rays establishes that shocks and relativistic particle acceleration are key features of these events. These shoc…
