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.
Statistical tests on outburst timings from AAVSO and historical data show no significant orbital-phase preference for active phases in T CrB.
