The 2000 outburst of the recurrent nova CI Aquilae: Optical spectroscopy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present low- and medium resolution spectra of the recurrent nova CI Aquilae taken at 14 epochs in May and June, 2000. The overall appearance is similar to other U Sco-type recurrent novae (U Sco, V394 CrA). Medium resolution (-) hydrogen and iron profiles suggest an early expansion velocity of 2000-2500 km s-1. The Hα evolution is followed from = -0.6 d to +53 d, starting from a nearly Gaussian shape to a double peaked profile through strong P-Cyg profiles. The interstellar component of the sodium D line and two diffuse interstellar bands put constraints on the interstellar reddening which is estimated to be =. The available visual and CCD-V observations are used to determine t0, t2 and t3. The resulting parameters are: , d, d. The recent lightcurve is found to be generally similar to that observed in 1917 with departures as large as 1-2 mag in certain phases. This behaviour is also typical for the U Sco subclass.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
