Early spectral evolution of classical novae: consistent evidence for multiple distinct outflows
E. Aydi, L. Chomiuk, L. Izzo +18
The physical mechanism driving mass ejection during a nova eruption is still poorly understood. Possibilities include ejection in a single ballistic event, a common envelope intera…
X-ray Spectroscopy of the gamma-ray Brightest Nova V906 Car (ASASSN-18fv)
Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Koji Mukai, Laura Chomiuk +15
Shocks in gamma-ray emitting classical novae are expected to produce bright thermal and non-thermal X-rays. We test this prediction with simultaneous NuSTAR and Fermi/LAT observati…
A Distant Fast Radio Burst Associated to its Host Galaxy with the Very Large Array
C. J. Law, B. J. Butler, J. X. Prochaska +17
We present the discovery and subarcsecond localization of a new Fast Radio Burst with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array and realfast search system. The FRB was discovered on 2019…
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…
VLA/Realfast Detection of a Burst from FRB180916.J0158+65 and Tests for Periodic Activity
Kshitij Aggarwal, Casey J. Law, Sarah Burke-Spolaor +5
We report on the detection of a burst from FRB180916 by realfast/VLA and present software for interpreting fast radio bursts (FRB) periodicity. We demonstrate a range of periodicit…
A Demonstration of Extremely Low Latency -ray, X-Ray & UV Follow-Up of a Millisecond Radio Transient
Aaron Tohuvavohu, Casey J. Law, Jamie A. Kennea +18
We report results of a novel high-energy follow-up observation of a potential Fast Radio Burst. The radio burst was detected by VLA/realfast and followed-up by the Neil Gehrels Swi…
Direct evidence for shock-powered optical emission in a nova
Elias Aydi, Kirill V. Sokolovsky, Laura Chomiuk +39
Classical novae are thermonuclear explosions that occur on the surfaces of white dwarf stars in interacting binary systems (Bode & Evans 2008). It has long been thought that the lu…
A repeating fast radio burst source localised to a nearby spiral galaxy
B. Marcote, K. Nimmo, J. W. T. Hessels +51
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief, bright, extragalactic radio flashes. Their physical origin remains unknown, but dozens of possible models have been postulated. Some FRB sources…
