Identifying and Quantifying Recurrent Novae Masquerading as Classical Novae

Abstract: Recurrent novae (RNe) are cataclysmic variables with two or more nova eruptions within a century. Classical novae (CNe) are similar systems with only one such eruption. Many of the so-called CNe are actually RNe for which only one eruption has been discovered. Since RNe are candidate Type Ia supernova progenitors, it is important to know whether there are enough in our Galaxy to provide the supernova rate, and therefore to know how many RNe are masquerading as CNe. To quantify this, we collected all available … Show more

“…V2487 Oph is also located in the RN region of this plot, which is one of the characteristics that led us to search for-and find-a previous eruption of this system [Pagnotta et al(2009)]. Figure originally published in [Pagnotta & Schaefer(2014)]. …”

“…The careful reader has certainly noticed that of the seven novae listed above, four are recurrent novae and three are somewhat debated (i.e. LMC 2009a, KT Eri and DE Cir, Jurdana-Sepic et al 2012;Pagnotta & Schaefer 2014). Without entering into the discussion on the possible short recurrent nature of these novae and the recently debated definition of recurrent novae and classes of recurrent novae, we just note here that few of these seven novae show additional common phenomenology such as the expansion velocities (all FWHM are in excess of ∼3500 km s −1 ), a [Ne] dominated nebular spectrum (U Sco, Diaz et al 2011;Mason et al 2012;YY Dor, Walter et al 2012;LMC 2009a, this paper, andDE Cir, Walter et al 2012), slightly evolved secondaries (U Sco, V394 CrA, KT Eri andLMC 2009a, Darnley et al 2012; for the case of KT Eri see also Munari & Dallaporta 2014a) and orbital period of the order of 1 day (U Sco, Schaefer 2010; V394 CrA, Schaefer 2010, andLMC 2009a;Bode et al 2009) which are worth to explore since they suggest possible profound common physical characteristics (e.g.…”
