The maximum ejecta-to-accreted mass ratio in novae is at most ~2.6, set by nuclear energy release, contradicting claims of ratios up to 540 from orbital data.

New NuSTAR observation and historical review indicate an initial strong shock near the red giant in RS Oph produces both gamma-ray particle acceleration and 0.2-30 keV thermal X-rays, with gamma-ray flux from Fermi inconsistent and implications for T CrB.
Enhanced AML via L2-point mass loss in the RLOF channel alters ELM WD internal structure and mass-radius relation, reproducing observed shorter orbital periods.
A toy model of reverse shocks in novae predicts GeV gamma rays near optical peak and potential TeV emission later, consistent with Fermi observations under an empirically thin post-shock layer.
