Novae (plural of nova) Nova Cyg 1975
17
gas emission linesdust production Examples of spectra of novae at near IR wavelengths

Supernovae Ia Accretion onto WD sends it over the Chandrasekhar Limit Animation SN Ia One problem: getting these to actually explode the right way has been a challenge. I recent years, the idea of colliding white dwarf stars in binary, or better yet, triple star systems has become much more attractive.
