AbstractNovae ejecta pass through four distinct phases of evolution of the emission-line spectrum, caused by different ionization characteristics of the shell. These include a neutral (I), an auroral (II), a coronal (III), and a nebular (IV) phase. Photoionization from the contracting photosphere of the hot white dwarf is the source of the ionization, including the highly ionized coronal phase. Changing emission line ratios in certain novae that develop dust are caused by condensation of grains from the gas, and can be used to determine the composition of the dust. In V1370 Aql, substantial silicate grain formation appears to have taken place, probably within the ionized gas.

AbstractWe present ultraviolet and X-ray observations of the eclipsing SU UMa dwarf nova OY Car early in the decline from a superoutburst. From the UV emission line spectrum and lack of X-ray eclipse, we deduce the presence of an extended coronal region.

The class of Low-Excitation Herbig-Haro Objects are characterised by [SII] and [OI] lines which are comparable in strength to H-Alpha, by [NI] lines that are comparable to H-Beta, relatively weak [NII] and [OII] lines, little or no [OIII] emission and a very strong blue-UV “excess”. This blue and UV continuum in low-excitation HH Objects was noted as a problem by Brugel, Böhm and Mannery (1981), Ortalani and D'Odorico (1980) and Böhm, Böhm-Vitense and Brugel (1981). The first suggestion that it results from collisionally enhanced Hydrogen two-photon (2q) continuum was by Dopita (1981). The subsequent observations of Dopita, Binette and Schwartz (1982) proved that this was indeed the case. However, although very close correlations between this enhancement and the emission-line spectrum were found, a fair theoretical description could only be obtained for very youthful shock models with ages of order 30 years. However, there seems to be no reason why low excitation HH shocks should be much younger than the high excitation shocks.

The 4 known AM Her stars or polars (AM Her, ANUMa, W Pup, and 2A0311-227) are characterized by large circular polarizations of 10-35%, (Tapia 1977a, b, Krzeminski and Serkowski 1977), an emission line spectrum with strong H and He lines (Crampton and Cowley 1977, Greenstein et al. 1977), complex photometric variations (Szkody 1978, Priedhorsky and Krzeminski 1978, Warner & Nather 1972), long term high and low states and short orbital periods (80-180 min.). Models of these systems envision a close binary containing a magnetic white dwarf primary (B ~ 108G) and late type main sequence secondary transferring material into an accretion funnel over one or both poles of the white dwarf (Stockman et al. 1977, Lamb & Masters 1979, Liebert et al. 1978).

Consequences of a detailed photoionization model study of the shell ejected by Nova Mus 1983 (GQ Mus) are presented for the period from early 1983 to 1990 (Morisset & Péquignot 1996).The drastic time variation of the emission line spectrum, including the transition from a nebular to a coronal stage in 1986, can be quantitatively understood in terms of a smooth evolution of both the expanding shell and the hot thermal source. This transition is due to a decrease of the shell density with time, and not to an increase of the source effective temperature.The model shell comprises two components so that not all directions become optically thin to ionizing radiation simultaneously. The range of density and geometrical thickness of the emitting material is of the order of a factor 2.
