On the Progenitors of Local Group Novae. II. The Red Giant Nova Rate of M31
S. C. Williams, M. J. Darnley, M. F. Bode +1
In our preceding paper, Liverpool Telescope data of M31 novae in eruption were used to facilitate a search for their progenitor systems within archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST)…
A remarkable recurrent nova in M31: Discovery and optical/UV observations of the predicted 2014 eruption
M. J. Darnley, M. Henze, I. A. Steele +20
The Andromeda Galaxy recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a had been caught in eruption eight times. The inter-eruption period of M31N 2008-12a is ~1 year, making it the most rapidly recurri…
A Luminous Red Nova in M31 and its Progenitor System
S. C. Williams, M. J. Darnley, M. F. Bode +1
We present observations of M31LRN 2015 (MASTER OT J004207.99+405501.1), discovered in M31 in 2015 January, and identified as a rare and enigmatic luminous red nova (LRN). Spectrosc…
A remarkable recurrent nova in M 31: The predicted 2014 outburst in X-rays with Swift
M. Henze, J. -U. Ness, M. J. Darnley +7
The M 31 nova M31N 2008-12a was recently found to be a recurrent nova (RN) with a recurrence time of about 1 year. This is by far the fastest recurrence time scale of any known RNe…
