Surveying the X-ray Behavior of Novae as They Emit -rays

Alexa C. Gordon, Elias Aydi, Kim L. Page +5

The detection of GeV -ray emission from Galactic novae by -LAT has become routine since 2010, and is generally associated with shocks internal to the nova ejecta. These s…

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…

A New Candidate Transitional Millisecond Pulsar in the Sub-luminous Disk State: 4FGL J0407.7--5702

Jessie M. Miller, Samuel J. Swihart, Jay Strader +7

We report the discovery of a variable optical and X-ray source within the error ellipse of the previously unassociated Fermi Large Area Telescope -ray source 4FGL J0407.7--5702.…

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…

High-Energy Neutrinos and Gamma-Rays from Non-Relativistic Shock-Powered Transients

Ke Fang, Brian D. Metzger, Indrek Vurm +2

Shock interaction has been argued to play a role in powering a range of optical transients, including supernovae (particularly the superluminous class), classical novae, stellar me…

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…
