Recovery of old novae

Schmidtobreick L.; Tappert C.; Mennickent, R. E.; Bianchini, A

Abstract

In the course of a long-term project investigating classical novae with large outburst amplitudes, we have performed multi{wavelength photometry and optical spectroscopy of several old{nova candidates. We here introduce the aim of the project, the search for low mass{transfer novae with short orbital periods, and explain the method to recover these old novae via their colour characteristics. Finally we concentrate on first results for selected objects in our sample. © Copyright 2004: IA, UNAM.
