NICER observation list: Target ID 868001

Abstract

Nova T CrB is predicted to be the brightest nova since 1975 and will likely revolutionize our understanding of the physics of thermonuclear explosions on white dwarfs. The fireball phase, measured once before, occurs before the optical brightening and is the earliest detected phase of the outburst. Due to the proximity of T CrB and resulting brightness, NICER is likely the only telescope that facilitates a high-quality spectrum and lightcurve during the fireball phase. Catching it in T CrB will, for the first time, enable us to constrain the initial expansion velocity of the photosphere, study absorbing material present in the system, and inform on the presence of winds.
