Scientific paper

The emergent continuum of a slow classical nova during outburst is studied using the quasi-steady optically thick, transonic wind models of Ruggles and Bath (1979). Models are developed for various steady mass loss rates and these models are then related to the evolution of slow novae during decline and early post-maximum. It is shown that the continuum emission departs radically from a blackbody spectrum and exhibits features common to highly extended stellar atmospheres.
