Scientific paper

Infrared spectroscopy of classical, dwarf and recurrent novae, is reviewed. The impact of spectroscopy at wavelengths greater than 1 micron on the understanding of objects coming under the blanket title of novae and related stars is analyzed. The work includes the related class of symbiotic stars, some of which also undergo outbursts, and the central systems of which share some common characteristics with their cousins in the above group. Particular attention is paid to classical novae where infrared spectroscopy is invaluable in probing the early chemistry, formation of dust shells, and the origin of coronal line emission seen in many of these objects.
