From Light to Sound: Spectroscopic Evolution & Sonification of the flaring Nova V612 Scuti
Pragati Acharya, Elias Aydi, Kirill V. Sokolovsky +17
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the 2017 Galactic nova V612 Sct, whose optical evolution was marked by multiple unusually large maxima. The eruption includ…
Pre-nova Observations of T CrB: A view from the CHARA Array
Ryan Norris, Narsireddy Anugu, Thomas Gaudin +38
T CrB is a symbiotic recurrent nova consisting of a red giant and white dwarf with recent eruptions in 1866 and 1946 and an anticipated eruption in the mid 2020s. We report CHARA A…
TESS detection of periodic brightness variations during the rise of classical nova PGIR22akgylf
Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Elias Aydi, Konstantin Malanchev +14
Classical novae are transient events powered by thermonuclear burning in a layer of hydrogen-rich material accreted by a white dwarf from its binary companion. Most classical novae…
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…
Revisiting the classics: On the evolutionary origin of the "Fe II" and "He/N" spectral classes of novae
E. Aydi, L. Chomiuk, J. Strader +21
The optical spectra of novae are characterized by emission lines from the hydrogen Balmer series and either Fe II or He/N, leading to their traditional classification into two spec…
Optical and NIR data and modelling of nova V5668 Sgr
L. Takeda, M. Diaz, R. D. Campbell +4
We present HST optical images, Keck-OSIRIS NIR IFS data cubes and Keck-NIRC2 NIR images of nova V5668 Sgr from 2016 to 2019. The observations indicate enhanced emission at the pola…
A Radio Emission Analysis of Classical Nova V351 Pup (1991)
Carolyn N. Wendeln, Laura Chomiuk, Thomas Finzell +2
Previously, Nova Puppis 1991 (V351 Pup) was measured to host one of the most massive ejections claimed in the literature. Multi-frequency radio detections from one epoch were publi…
A Detailed Observational Analysis of V1324 Sco, the Most Gamma-Ray Luminous Classical Nova to Date
Thomas Finzell, Laura Chomiuk, Brian D. Metzger +32
It has recently been discovered that some, if not all, classical novae emit GeV gamma rays during outburst, but the mechanisms involved in the production of the gamma rays are stil…
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…
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…
