Abstract

We present a search and study of interstellar (IS) absorption features in the observed spectra of two Novae V339 Del and V5668 Sgr. We obtained high resolution spectra (R ≈ 20, 000) in the wavelength range between 3800 and 8800 Å of both novae with the TIGRE telescope. Common IS features of Na I and Ca II were identified in both novae, and the Ca II H and K features of Nova V339 Del show substructures, while a blueshifted absorption feature was found in the spectra of Nova V5668 Sgr. Absorption of K I was identified only in the spectra of Nova V5668 Sgr. The DIBs 6196, 6203, 6379, 6614 and 7562 were found in both novae, and in the spectra of Nova V5668 Sgr we could also identify the DIBs 5780, 5797 and 6660. We present the equivalent widths of all features and determined the column densities of Ca II, K I and hydrogen in the direction of Nova V5668 Sgr (log NCa II = 12.50, log NK I = 11.55, log NH = 18.5).
