Proposal

Long-term monitoring of recent novae to track their return to quiescence. Novae are typically well observed only within the first few months of outburst, with little or no photometric data collected beyond six months after outburst, so little is known about their photometric behavior. All targets are south of the equator so either OC61, SRO50, or TMO61 (the latter two for more northern objects) would be preferred. Observations every 2-4 should be sufficient.
