Kolobow, Craig; Sion, Edward

Q Cygni (Nova Cygni 1876) is the third-oldest old novae (after WY Sge and V841 Oph), with a long orbital period of 10.08 hr and spectroscopic peculiarities in the optical, including the presence of variable wind outflow revealed by optical P Cygni profiles in the He i lines and Hαβ. We have carried out a synthetic spectral analysis of a far-ultrav…
