Pignatari, M., Denisenkov, P. A., Herwig, F., & Truran, J. (2014). MESA and NuGrid simulations of classical nova outbursts and nucleosynthesis. In P. Woudt, & V. Ribeiro (Eds.), Stella Novae: Past and future decades

Classical novae are the results of surface thermonuclear explosions of hydrogen accreted by white dwarfs (WDs) from their low-mass main-sequence or red-giant binary companions. Chemical composition analysis of their ejecta shows that nova outbursts o... Read More about MESA and NuGrid simulations of classical nova outbursts and nucleosynthesis.
