Scientific paper

The "hibernation" model, in which nova systems spend most of the time between eruptions in a state of low mass transfer rate, is examined. The authors determine which binary systems are more likely to undergo hibernation. The predictions of the hibernation scenario are shown to be consistent with available observational data. The authors indicate how the hibernation scenario provides links between classical novae, dwarf novae, and novalike variables, all of which represent different stages in the cyclic evolution of the same systems.
