The Unique Helium Nova V445 Puppis Ejected ≫0.001 M⊙ in the Year 2000 and Will Not Become a Type Ia Supernova
V445 Puppis (Nova Puppis 2000) is the only known example of a helium nova, where a layer of helium-rich gas accretes onto the surface of a white dwarf (WD) in a cataclysmic variable, with runaway helium burning making for the nova event.
