Scientific paper

Two recent galactic novae, V2487 Oph 1998 and V4633 Sgr 1998, have been detec- ted in both soft and hard X-rays with XMM. V2487 Oph showed an iron fluores- cent line only 2.7 yrs after its explosion, a clear signature of the very fast recovery of accretion, and V4633 Sgr displayed hard X-ray emission not clearly attributable to shocked ejecta or accretion. Longer observations are needed to do accurate timing and high resolution spectroscopy, essential to determine the main properties of the underlying cataclysmic variable in V2487 Oph (first nova seen in X-rays prior and after exploding) and to disentangle the origin of the hard X-rays from V4633 Sgr, through an analysis of the chemical compo- sition of the emitting thermal plasma, solar if accretion, non solar if ejecta.
