| Abstract: | We have applied maximum entropy reconstruction methods to the IRAS observations of the nova GK Persei to examine the spatial distribution of the far-IR emission. We have discovered discrete regions of emission in a co-linear structure extending to 17 arcmin on either side of the binary system, supporting a stellar origin for the structure. We postulate that the evolved secondary is the progenitor of the circumbinary envelope. |
