dc.description.abstract | X-RAY novae form a subclass of low-mass X-ray binaries, which typically consist of a neutron star accreting material from a low-mass, late-type companion. In a few cases, however-notably A0620-00 (ref. 1)-, the accreting object may be a black hole. The detection and study of the optical counterpart is then of great importance in understanding the origin of the X-ray emission and the nature of the companion. We report here the discovery of a new X-ray nova, Nova Muscae 1991, which we found in a search for the optical counterpart of the new transient X-ray source GRS1121-68. The optical position, light-curve and early spectral development of the outburst support the identification of Nova Muscae 1991 as a binary, and similarities with A0620-00 (known optically as V616 Mon) in its early evolutionary stages led us to classify Nova Muscae 1991 as a candidate black-hole binary. | en_US |
