X-ray Observations of Classical and Recurrent Novae in Outburst
I review X-ray observations of classical and recurrent novae in outburst, some of them recently done with Chandra and XMM-Newton for 12 objects. Significant X-ray flux is emitted by the nova shell, with a peak luminosity up to Lx=10 35 erg s in the 0.2-10 keV range. In recurrent nova systems, or in novae hosting a red giant, the source of X-rays may be previous circumstellar matter shocked by t...
متن کاملRecurrent Novae , Classical Novae , Symbiotic Novae , and Population II
Light curve analysis of decay phase of nova outburst are summarized. Nova duration is determined by the strong wind mass-loss which depends only on the white dwarf mass. Fast novae correspond very massive white dwarfs and very slow novae correspond almost lower mass limit of white dwarfs. This relation is shown in both of classical novae and recurrent novae. Light curves are theoretically repro...
متن کاملObservations of Classical Novae
The new γ-ray burst (GRB) mission Swift has obtained pointed observations of several classical novae in outburst. We analyzed all the observations of classical novae from the Swift archive up to 30 June, 2006. We analyzed usable observations of 12 classical novae and found 4 non-detections, 3 weak sources and 5 strong sources. This includes detections of 2 novae exhibiting spectra resembling th...
متن کاملNucleosynthesis in Classical Novae
A general review of the relevance of classical novae for the chemical evolution of the Galaxy, as well as for Galactic radioactivity is presented. A special emphasis is put on the pioneering work done by Jim Truran in this field of research. The impact of recent developments in nuclear astrophysics on nova nucleosynthesis, together with the prospects for observability of novae radioactivities w...
متن کاملModels for the soft X - ray emission of post - outburst classical novae
A hydrostatic and stationary white dwarf envelope model has been developed for the study of the post-outburst phases of classical novae and their soft X-ray emission. Several white dwarf masses and chemical compositions typical for classical novae have been considered. The results show that the luminosity, maximum effective temperature and envelope masses depend on the white dwarf mass and on t...
