A triple star origin for T Pyx and other short-period recurrent novae [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 Recurrent novae are star systems in which a massive white dwarf accretes material at such a high rate that it undergoes thermonuclear runaways every 1 - 100 years.

For how long are particles accelerated in shells of recurrent novae? [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 Galactic novae are at present a well established class of γ-ray sources. We wonder for how long the mechanism of acceleration of electrons operates in the shells of novae.

A Search for recurrent novae among Far Eastern guest stars [PDF]
New Astronomy, 2021 According to recent theoretical studies, classical novae are expected to erupt every ∼105 years, while the recurrence time scale of modern recurrent novae (Nr) stars ranges from 10 to ∼100 years.

Early Infrared and Visible Spectra from the 2022 Outburst of the Recurrent Novae U Scorpii
Research Notes of the AAS, 2023 Spectroscopy from 0.46–2.5 μm is presented for the 2022 outburst of the recurrent nova U Scorpii from 2.54, 3.60, and 8.59 days after maximum light.

The nature of recurrent novae [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 1987 AbstractThe observational properties and outburst histories of each member of the small class of recurrent novae are reviewed, with the objective of identifying the outburst mechanisms for these systems. Examples are found of both accretion-powered outbursts (T CrB and RS Oph) and thermonuclear-powered outbursts (T Pyx and U Sco).

Recurrent nova IM Normae [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2002 We detected the second historical outburst of the 1920 nova IM Nor. Accurate astrometry of the outbursting object revealed the true quiescent counterpart having a magnitude of R=17.0 mag and B=18.0 mag. We show that the quiescent counterpart shows a noticeable variation.

Supersoft X-ray phases of recurrent novae as an indicator of their white dwarf masses [PDF]
, 2020 We have examined the optical/X-ray light curves of seven well-observed recurrent novae, V745 Sco, M31N 2008-12a, LMC N 1968, U Sco, RS Oph, LMC N 2009a, T Pyx, and one recurrent nova candidate LMC N 2012a.

Classical and Recurrent Nova Models [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 AbstractRemarkable progress in the understanding of nova outbursts has been achieved through combined efforts in photometry, spectroscopy and numerical simulations. According to the thermonuclear runaway model, novae are powered by thermonuclear explosions in the hydrogen-rich envelopes transferred from a low-mass stellar companion onto a close white ...
