Discovery of Extreme, Roughly-Daily Superflares on the Recurrent Nova V2487 Oph
Bradley E. Schaefer, Ashley Pagnotta, Seth Zoppelt
V2487 Oph is a recurrent nova with detected eruptions in 1900 and 1998. Startlingly, V2487 Oph shows flares, called `Superflares', with up to 1.10 mag amplitude, fast rises of unde…
Precise Measures of Orbital Period, Before and After Nova Eruption for QZ Aurigae
Bradley E. Schaefer, David Boyd, Geoffrey C. Clayton +7
For the ordinary classical nova QZ Aurigae (which erupted in 1964), we report 1317 magnitudes from 1912--2016, including four eclipses detected on archival photographic plates from…
Non-Detection of Nova Shells Around Asynchronous Polars
Ashley Pagnotta, David Zurek
Asynchronous polars (APs) are accreting white dwarfs (WDs) that have different WD and orbital angular velocities, unlike the rest of the known polars, which rotate synchronously (i…
HST Images Flash Ionization of Old Ejecta by the 2011 Eruption of Recurrent Nova T Pyxidis
Michael M. Shara, David Zurek, Bradley E. Schaefer +8
T Pyxidis is the only recurrent nova surrounded by knots of material ejected in previous outbursts. Following the eruption that began on 2011 April 14.29, we obtained seven epochs…
