Novae
A nova (plural: novae) is believed to occur
when matter from a large companion star accretes onto the surface of a
white dwarf in a binary star system: The white dwarf represents the death
of an average star, and is not producing energy from..

The normal novae
are brighter still than either the dwarf or the recurrent novae,
and more common. More than 100 novae have
been observed in our galaxy in the last one hundred years.
|
Novae
are stars that in a matter of few days brighten up dramatically and then
in weeks, months, or years fades back to the original level of brightness.

An artists conception (not to scale) of two binary star systems: the top one containing a black
hole, and the bottom one containing a neutron star. Because nothing, not
even light, can escape the event horizon around the black hole, this star
appears black.

Novae
and Cataclysmic Variable Stars Some interacting, short period binary stars
have orbits so small that one member, a main sequence star, transfers mass
to its companion white dwarf, triggering an explosion with an energy equal
to 10,000 years..
|
When a star undergoes
a nova explosion, it may outshine 10,000 stars for a period of days or
even weeks. However, in the light of hydrogen's H-alpha line, a nova will
remain bright for months, or even years!

of Texas Astronomy Department Supernovae are
the violent explosions of stars that are responsible for producing all
of the "heavy" material (anything other than hydrogen and helium) in the
Universe.

Discovery of many
kinds of transient astronomical phenomena (e.g., comets, novae,
supernovae, etc.) should be reported to the CBAT. The Bureau is responsible for assigning designations to comets and
supernovae.
