The absolute blue magnitudes of novae are predicted to have minimum spread approximately 18 days after visual maximum, in good agreement with the empirically determined value of 15 days. The absolute blue magnitude (15) is derived theoretically from the recently explained MB - t3 relation for novae; it is a slowly varying function of t3 (the time to decline 3 mag from maximum), which agrees well with observations.
