Recurrent novae

Recurrent novae, which differ from typical novae by the fact that two or more outbursts (instead of a single one) separated by 10-80 years have been observed (T CrB).


GK Persei, the nova Persei 1901, shows a peculiarity : recurrent small outbursts, to magnitude 10 during about 2 months.
