Theoretical explanation of the absolute magnitude-decline time (M/sub B/--t3) relationship for classical novae
Description
The empirically determined absolute magnitude--decline time relation for classical novae is a fundamental distance indicator and important nova model constraint. Despite its obvious importance, no completely theoretical explanation has yet been offered for the M/sub B/--t3 relation
