Title: A stellar explosion may add a temporary new 'star' to the night sky this summer.
Authors: Bennett, Jay
Source: Science News. 8/10/2024, Vol. 206 Issue 2, p4-4. 2/3p.
Subjects: Stars, Red giants
Abstract: A nova eruption is expected to occur in the constellation Corona Borealis, resulting in a temporary brightening in the night sky. This phenomenon is caused by a white dwarf star orbiting a red giant star, where material is being pulled from the larger star onto the surface of the white dwarf. The pressure and temperature build-up will eventually trigger a blast that can be seen from Earth for a few days to a week. Astronomers are closely monitoring this binary system known as T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) and hope to gain insights into the behavior of white dwarfs and their impact on star systems and galaxies.
