Scientific paper
We report on 13 evolutionary sequences of nova outbursts, from the onset of accretion to the expansion and ejection stages, for a wide range of input parameters, such as the white dwarf mass (0.8 to 1.35 Msolar), and the degree of mixing between the accreted envelope and the outermost shells of the underlying core (25 to 75%). Both CO and ONe white dwarfs are considered. The hydrodynamic code is linked to a complete nuclear reaction library including 370 reactions which follows the detailed evolution of 100 isotopes, ranging from 1H to 40Ca. Special emphasis is focused on the mean composition of the ejecta, which provide large amounts of nuclei of astrophysical interest, such as 7Be or 22Na (which might be detected by future gamma-ray missions), 26Al, or other species that may account for their Galactic content, like 13C, 15N or 17O. A detailed analysis of the nuclear flows involved in the synthesis of several nuclear species and the corresponding uncertainties in the rates is also outlined.
