Photometric, Spectroscopic and Imaging Analysis of V2362 Cyg (Nova Cygni 2006)
In this thesis, we aimed to analysis the available photometric, spectroscopic and imaging data of V2362 Cyg which shows a rare second maximum on the light curve after the explosion and investigate the results.
In the process for preparing this thesis, we investigated the nature of cataclysmic variables (CVs) and a group of this CVs classical novae (CN), we made a detailed literature review of V2362 Cyg classical nova and we reduced photometric, spectroscopic and imaging data by using IRAF, and then magnitude and time data which aqcuired from photometric reduce used for period analysis by using DCDTF transform and finally we compared our results with literature (Nasıroğlu, 2007; Kimeswenger et al., 2008; Balman et al., 2009).
In the results of this study, we conclude that it is needed of revised the classification system of V2362 Cyg classical nova because of the second maxima on the light curve. Magnitude changes in our light curves which aqcuired from photometric data and line identifies and profile – flux changes in our spectroscopic data are similar and compatible with literature (Munari et al., 2008; Poggiani, 2009; Czart et al., 2006; Lynch et al., 2007). In consequence of the reduction and measurements of one night imaging data we can not reach the shell formation around the nova. As a result of the period analysis by using DCDFT transform after the photometric reduction in IRAF, we found the orbital period of nova between 0,1442 – 0,1498 days. This result compatible with one of three studies about orbital period in the literature (Nasıroğlu, 2007), but we conclude that orbital period must be determined again due to the incompatibility of the values given in the literature.
