Today is paper day! Recently, I discovered two outbursts of the unusual recurrent nova M31N 2017-01e, one new (M31N 2024-08c), one old (M31N 2014-06c). After discussions with Prof. Allen Shafter from San Diego State University, an RNAAS paper was published today. 🔭

In addition to these two outbursts, I also led the discovery of the 2022 outburst (M31N 2022-03d). Reference: www.astronomerstelegram.org?read=15729

M31N 2017-01e has a recurrence time of ~2.5 yr, which is the second shortest known for any nova. After adding the two outbursts I recently discovered, the nova is known to 6 outbursts, which is the second most in the M31 galaxy. We expect the next eruption occur in Mar. 2027.🔭
