any sudden brightening of a previously inconspicuous star
Star that suddenly erupts into an object of great brilliance, surpassing the Sun's luminosity by a factor of hundreds of thousands to millions of times and then fading more slowly
A star that abruptly and temporarily increases its brightness by a factor of hundreds of thousands Unlike supernovae (much more violent explosions which destroy the stars that produce them), stars that "go nova'' can do so more than once Novae are thought to occur in binary stars in which one member is a compressed dwarf star (such as a white dwarf or a neutron star) orbiting close to a much larger star According to this theory, material from the larger star's outer layers accumulates on the dwarf's surface, becoming ever hotter and more compressed by the dwarf's strong gravity, until the ~stolen'' material explodes [See supernova, binary star, white dwarf, and neutron star]
an object that greatly increases in brightness rapidly, so it appears as a ``new star'' It is caused by the buildup on a white dwarf's surface of hydrogen gas from a companion star to the point where the hydrogen fuses explosively into helium The super-rapid fusion does not blow up the white dwarf, so the process can repeat itself (contrast with a Type I supernova)
A star which suddenly becomes many times brighter than previously, and then gradually fades
A star that flares up to several times its original brightness for some time before returning to its original state
A new star, usually appearing suddenly, shining for a brief period, and then sinking into obscurity
a star that ejects some of its material in the form of a cloud and become more luminous in the process
A star that abruptly increases in brightness by a factor of a million A nova is caused in a binary star system where hydrogen-rich material is transferred to the surface of a white dwarf until sufficient material and temperatures exist to kindle explosive nuclear fusion
An explosion on the surface of a binary star because of a chain reaction
A star that explodes, temporarily increasing its brightness 100000 or more
A "new" star or a very old dying star A sudden brightening of a star making it appear "new" in the sky; believed associated with eruptions on white dwarfs in binary systems Observations can help us understand what a nova is
A star that suddenly and temporarily brightens, thought to be due to new material being deposited on the surface of a white dwarf
A star which suddenly flares up to many times its original brightness before fading again
A type of suddenly brightening star (from the Latin for ``new'') resulting from explosive brightening when gas is dumped from one member of a binary star pair onto the other
NGO: Vietnam/Australian Program, AusAID
An existing star which suddenly increases its brightness by more than 10 magnitudes and then slowly fades O

A star which, from natural causes, experiences a sudden increase in brightness Stars experiencing an explosive increase are called supernovas
{i} star which suddenly becomes very bright and then returns to its previous brightness over a period of time (Astronomy)
Such appearances are supposed to result from cosmic collisions, as of a dark star with interstellar nebulosities
A faint star that suddenly becomes bright, becoming visible from where no star had been seen before Only two or three novae are discovered each year Most novae are binary stars
novas novae a star which explodes and suddenly becomes much brighter for a short time supernova. Any of a class of stars whose luminosity temporarily increases by several thousand up to a million times normal. Most appear to be close binary stars, one of which is a white dwarf star drawing in matter from the other until it becomes unstable, causing an outburst in which the outer layer of material is shed. A nova reaches maximum luminosity within hours after its outburst and may shine intensely for several days or even a few weeks; it then slowly returns to its former level. The process can repeat at intervals ranging from a few dozen to hundreds of thousands of years. Stars that become novas are usually too faint to see with the unaided eye until their sudden increase in luminosity, sometimes great enough to make them readily visible in the night sky. To observers, such objects may appear to be new stars; hence their name (Latin for "new"). See also supernova

{i} province located on a peninsula in southeastern Canada
Nova Scotia
a province of southeast Canada on the Atlantic Ocean, whose capital city is Halifax. It consists mainly of farmland and forests, and it also produces minerals. Province (pop., 2001: 943,000), Canada, one of the Maritime Provinces. It comprises the peninsula of Nova Scotia, Cape Breton Island, and a few small adjacent islands, and it is bounded by the Northumberland Strait, the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the Atlantic Ocean, the Bay of Fundy, and New Brunswick. Its capital is Halifax. The region was first visited by Vikings AD 1000 and was inhabited by Micmac Indians when John Cabot claimed it for England in 1497. French settlers in 1605 adopted the Micmac name Acadia for the region. English and Scottish colonists arrived by 1621. The conflict between France and England over control of the area was ended by the 1713 Peace of Utrecht, which awarded it to England. In the 1750s, the British expelled most of the French settlers. Following the American Revolution, many loyalists emigrated there. It joined the Dominion of Canada in 1867 as one of the original members. The province's economic mainstays are fishing, shipbuilding, and transatlantic shipping

Ars Nova
(Latin; "New Art") Musical style of 14th-century Europe, particularly France. As composers began to use ever shorter notes in their music, the old system of rhythmic modes (see Ars Antiqua) ceased to be adequate to describe it. In his treatise Ars nova (1323), Philippe de Vitry (1291-1361) proposed a way of relating longer and shorter notes by a metrical scheme the ancestor of time signatures whereby each note value could be subdivided into either two or three of the next-shorter note. Though seemingly abstract, this innovation had a marked effect on the sound of music because composers were better able to control the relative motion of several voices, and 14th-century music consequently sounds much less "medieval" to modern ears. De Vitry and Guillaume de Machaut are the principal composers of the Ars Nova. The term is sometimes extended to describe all 14th-century music, including that of Italy. See also formes fixes
