We discovered multiple high-velocity (ranging from -900 to -650 km/s) and narrow (FWHM = 15 km/s) absorption components corresponding to both the D2 and the D1 lines of Na I on a high dispersion spectrum of V1280 Sco observed on 2009 May 9 (UT), 814 d after the V-band maximum. Subsequent observations carried out on 2009 June and July confirmed at least 11 distinct absorption components in both systems. Some components had deepened during the two months period while their HWHMs and wavelengths remained nearly constant. We suggest these high velocity components originate in cool clumpy gas clouds moving on the line of sight, produced in interactions between pre-existing cool circumstellar gas and high velocity gas ejected in the nova explosion. The optical region spectrum of V1280 Sco in 2009 is dominated by the continuum radiation and exhibits no forbidden line characterizing the nebular phase of typical novae. Permitted Fe II lines show doubly peaked emission profiles and some strong Fe II lines are accompanied by a blue shifted (about -255 km/s) absorption component. However, no high-velocity and narrow components corresponding to those of Na I could be detected in Fe II lines nor in the Balmer lines. The 255 km/s low velocity absorption component is most probably originating in the wind from the nova.

V1280 Sco is one of the slowest dust-forming nova ever historically observed. We performed multi-epoch high-spatial resolution observations of the circumstellar dusty environment of V1280 Sco to investigate the level of asymmetry of the ejecta We obs
erved V1280 Sco in 2009, 2010 and 2011 using unprecedented high angular resolution techniques. We used the NACO/VLT adaptive optics system in the J, H and K bands, together with contemporaneous VISIR/VLT mid-IR imaging that resolved the dust envelope of V1280 Sco, and SINFONI/VLT observations secured in 2011. We report the discovery of a dusty hourglass-shaped bipolar nebula. The apparent size of the nebula increased from 0.30 x 0.17 in July 2009 to 0.64 x 0.42 in July 2011. The aspect ratio suggests that the source is seen at high inclination. The central source shines efficiently in the K band and represents more than 56+/-5% of the total flux in 2009, and 87+/-6% in 2011. A mean expansion rate of 0.39+/-0.03 mas per day is inferred from the VISIR observations in the direction of the major axis, which represents a projected upper limit. Assuming that the dust shell expands in that direction as fast as the low-excitation slow ejecta detected in spectroscopy, this yields a lower limit distance to V1280 Sco of 1kpc; however, the systematic errors remain large due to the complex shape and velocity field of the dusty ejecta. The dust seems to reside essentially in the polar caps and no infrared flux is detected in the equatorial regions in the latest dataset. This may imply that the mass-loss was dominantly polar.
We report the discovery of blue-shifted metastable He I* absorption lines at 3188 A and 3889 A with multiple components on high-resolution spectra (R ~ 60,000) of V1280 Scorpii. Similar multiple absorption lines associated with Na I D doublet and Ca
II H and K are observed. Na I D doublet absorption lines have been observed since 2009, while the metastable He I* absorption lines were absent in 2009 and were detected in 2011 (four years after the burst). We find different time variations in depths and velocities of blue-shifted absorption components among He I*, Na I, and Ca II. The complex time evolutions of these lines can be explained by assuming changes in density and recombination/ionization rate when the ejecta expand and the photosphere contracts to become hotter. The multiple absorption lines originate in the ejected materials consisting of clumpy components, which obscure a significant part of the continuum emitting region. We estimate the total mass of the ejected material to be on the order of ~ 10^{-4} Mo, using metastable He I* 3188 and 3889 absorption lines.
We present infrared multi-epoch observations of the dust forming nova V1280 Sco over $sim$2000 days from the outburst. The temporal evolution of the infrared spectral energy distributions at 1272, 1616 and 1947 days can be explained by the emissions
produced by amorphous carbon dust of mass (6.6--8.7)$times$10$^{-8}$M$_{odot}$ with a representative grain size of 0.01$~mu$m and astronomical silicate dust of mass (3.4--4.3)$times$10$^{-7}$M$_{odot}$ with a representative grain size of 0.3--0.5$~mu$m. Both of these dust species travel farther away from the white dwarf without an apparent mass evolution throughout those later epochs. The dust formation scenario around V1280 Sco suggested from our analyses is that the amorphous carbon dust is formed in the nova ejecta followed by the formation of silicate dust in the expanding nova ejecta or as a result of the interaction between the nova wind and the circumstellar medium.
We present the results of our photometric and spectroscopic observations of Nova Sco 2007 N.1 (V1280 Sco). The photometric data was represented by a single data point in the light curve since the observation was carried out only for one night. The sp
ectra cover two different phases of the objects evolution during the outburst, i.e. pre-maximum and post-maximum. Measurements of the P-Cygni profile on Na I D line (5889 AA) was derived as the velocity of shell expansion, yielding $1567.43 pm 174.14$ km s$^{-1}$. We conclude that V1280 Sco is a fast Fe II-type nova.
In studies on intermediate- and high-resolution spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), some objects exhibit narrow Na-I D absorptions often blueshifted with respect to the rest wavelength within the host galaxy. The absence of these in other SNe Ia
may reflect that the explosions have different progenitors: blueshifted Na-I D features might be explained by the outflows of single-degenerate systems (binaries of a white dwarf with a non-degenerate companion). In this work, we search for systematic differences among SNe Ia for which the Na-I D characteristics have been clearly established in previous studies. We perform an analysis of the chemical abundances in the outer ejecta of 13 spectroscopically normal SNe Ia (five of which show blueshifted Na lines), modelling time series of photospheric spectra with a radiative-transfer code. We find only moderate differences between blueshifted-Na, redshifted-Na and no-Na SNe Ia, so that we can neither conclusively confirm a one-scenario nor a two-scenario theory for normal SNe Ia. Yet, some of the trends we see should be further studied using larger observed samples: Models for blueshifted-Na SNe tend to show higher photospheric velocities than no-Na SNe, corresponding to a higher opacity of the envelope. Consistently, blueshifted-Na SNe show hints of a somewhat larger iron-group content in the outer layers with respect to the no-Na subsample (and also to the redshifted-Na subsample). This agrees with earlier work where it was found that the light curves of no-Na SNe - often appearing in elliptical galaxies - are narrower, i.e. decline more rapidly.
