Scientific paper

Reconstructing the complete profile of a Classical Nova in outburst requires observations in different wavelength bands. We are a team of observers with access to radio, infrared, optical, and X-ray telescopes. X-ray observations allow views into the deepest layers, where the outflow originates and where the white dwarf dominates the observations. We have found a large range of different behaviors from past grating observations and argue that only systematic X-ray studies of novae can give us a better understanding of the underlying processes. Novae contribute to the chemical and energetic budget of the interstellar medium and they can be related to SNIa progenitors. We propose two observations of two bright novae with the RGS, 25ks each, triggered by appropriately converted Swift count rates.
