A Multiwavelength Light-curve Analysis of the Classical Nova KT Eri: Optical Contribution from a Large Irradiated Accretion Disk by Izumi Hachisu, Mariko Kato, Frederick M. Walter

“…This result is consistent with the temporal variation of wide-band V brightness that varies almost with the intermediate-band Strömgren y brightness, because the V flux is dominated by continuum radiation, the origin of which is a photospheric emission from the very bright disk. We determined the white dwarf mass to be M _WD = 1.3 ± 0.02 M _⊙ , the hydrogen-burning turnoff epoch to be ∼240 days after the outburst, the distance modulus in the V band to be ( m − M ) _V = 13.4 ± 0.2, and the distance to KT Eri to be d = 4.2 ± 0.4 kpc for the reddening of E ( B − V ) = 0.08. …”
