Shock-powered radio emission from V5589 Sagittarii (Nova Sgr 2012 1)

Jennifer H. S. Weston, J. L. Sokoloski, Laura Chomiuk +7

Since the Fermi discovery of -rays from novae, one of the biggest questions in the field has been how novae generate such high-energy emission. Shocks must be a fundamental ingr…

Distance and Reddening of the Enigmatic Gamma-ray-Detected Nova V1324 Sco

Thomas Finzell, Laura Chomiuk, Ulisse Munari +1

It has recently been discovered that some, if not all, classical novae emit GeV gamma-rays during outburst. Despite using an unreliable method to determine its distance, previous w…

Photometric evolution and peculiar dust formation in the gamma-ray Nova Sco 2012 (V1324 Sco)

U. Munari, F. M. Walter, A. Henden +3

Optical (BVRI) and infrared (JHK) photometry of the gamma-ray nova Nova Sco 2012 (V1324 Sco) is presented and the lightcurve reconstructed and discussed. An interstellar reddening…

Non-Thermal Radio Emission from Colliding Flows in Classical Nova V1723 Aql

Jennifer H. S. Weston, J. L. Sokoloski, Brian D. Metzger +9

The importance of shocks in nova explosions has been highlighted by Fermi's discovery of γ-ray producing novae. Over three years of multi-band VLA radio observations of the 2010 no…

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…
