Scientific paper

Detection of X-rays from classical novae in their post-outburst stages provides unique and crucial information about the explosion mechanism and the re establishment of accretion. Soft X-rays reveal if H-nuclear burning is still on, whereas harder X-rays give diagnostics about the ejecta or the properties of the reborn CV. We have detected 3 interesting novae with our monitoring campaign with XMM in AO6. V5116 Sgr (2005) and V5115 Sgr (2005) were still in the supersoft X-ray phase, with V5116 Sgr displaying a puzzling temporal varibility. V2362 Cyg, on the contrary, had already turned-off, but the short effective exposure (due to high radiation) prevented to disentangle the origin of the emission. We propose new observations of these exciting post-novae.
