Basic Information

• Common name:V705 Cas

• Other names:Nova Cas 1993

• Position: RA= 23h41m47.25d Dec=+57d30m59.7s

• Type: Novae, Cataclysmic Variables

• Distance: ?

Nova Cas 1993 was observed through a ToO program with ISO. From mid IR spectroscopy of novae, one can determine oxygen and neon abundances. Any dust created in a nova event should be visible using IRAC and MIPS.

Infrared Fluxes

Spectral Energy Distributions

This SED was created using the sensitivity and saturation values available in November 2004. The black dots are the flux values from the above table. The green and red lines are the respective sensitivity and saturation limits for each instrument. The sensitivity values used are for a 5 sigma detection of a point source with a 500 second exposure.
