摘要:

新星LMC 2009a与新星LMC 1971b位置重合,被确认为复发新星(RN)。观测数据集是任何银河系或河外RN最全面的数据集之一:从爆发到超过6年后的光学和近红外测光;前6个月的光谱,以及Swift卫星从爆发后9天到近1年的紫外线和X射线观测。我们发现$M_V = -8.4\pm0.8_{\mathrm{r}}\pm0.7_{\mathrm{s}}$和膨胀速度之间的1000和4000公里秒$^{-1}$。第9天之前的日冕线发射表明喷出物中存在激波。He II $λ$ 4686的强化先于$\sim63-70$天X射线中出现的超软源(SSS),而SSS最初是非常可变的。周期性的调制,$P=1.2$天,最有可能的轨道性质,是明显的紫外线和光学从第43天。随后,SSS示出具有相同周期但具有0.28P延迟的振荡。它的前身系统已经被确认,而第二个则很可能是一个次巨星,它正在吞噬一个发光的吸积盘。SSS的性质推断白矮星(WD)质量为$1.1 \mathrm{M}_\odot \lesssim M_{\rm WD} \lesssim 1.3 \mathrm{M}_\odot$。如果吸积发生在恒定的速度,$\dot{\it{M}}_{\rm acc} \simeq 3.6^{+4.7}_{-2.5} \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{M}_\odot$年$^{-1}$是必要的,符合新星模型的喷发间隔为38年,低爆发幅度,祖先的位置在颜色星等图,并在平静的光谱能量分布。我们注意到LMC 2009a和银河系新星KT Eri之间惊人的相似之处,这表明KT Eri是一个候选RN。

英文摘要:

Nova LMC 2009a is confirmed as a Recurrent Nova (RN) from positional coincidence with nova LMC 1971b. The observational data set is one of the most comprehensive for any Galactic or extragalactic RN: optical and near-IR photometry from outburst until over 6 years later; optical spectra for the first 6 months, and Swift satellite Ultraviolet and X-ray observations from 9 days to almost 1 year post-outburst. We find $M_V = -8.4\pm0.8_{\mathrm{r}}\pm0.7_{\mathrm{s}}$ and expansion velocities between 1000 and 4000 km s$^{-1}$. Coronal line emission before day 9 indicates shocks in the ejecta. Strengthening of He II $λ$4686 preceded the emergence of the Super-Soft Source (SSS) in X-rays at $\sim63-70$ days, which was initially very variable. Periodic modulations, $P=1.2$ days, most probably orbital in nature, were evident in the UV and optical from day 43. Subsequently, the SSS shows an oscillation with the same period but with a delay of 0.28P. The progenitor system has been identified; the secondary is most likely a sub-giant feeding a luminous accretion disk. Properties of the SSS infer a white dwarf (WD) mass $1.1 \mathrm{M}_\odot \lesssim M_{\rm WD} \lesssim 1.3 \mathrm{M}_\odot$. If the accretion occurs at constant rate, $\dot{\it{M}}_{\rm acc} \simeq 3.6^{+4.7}_{-2.5} \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{M}_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$ is needed, consistent with nova models for an inter-eruption interval of 38 years, low outburst amplitude, progenitor position in the color-magnitude diagram, and spectral energy distribution at quiescence. We note striking similarities between LMC 2009a and the Galactic nova KT Eri, suggesting that KT Eri is a candidate RN.
