A nova is followed optically from preoutburst to postoutburst appearance. Photospheric and atmospheric observational data are explained qualitatively through the energy budget, apparent in super-Eddington, Eddington, and sub-Eddington states, and the particle fluxes, according to their role in Grotrian’s model. In some instances, interpretations connected with Grotrian’s model are compared to results based on hydrostatic atmosphere models, for which quantitative versions exist. It is hoped that the physically and observationally sound ‘Ansatz’ of Grotrian may find followers to formulate an updated and extended theory.
