Recurrent Novae: Outbursts, Recurrent Novae: Spectra

Scientific paper

Up to late July, 1989, the six novae which have shown repeated outbursts in the last 130 years, are: V394 CrA, T CrB, RS Oph, T Pyx, U Sco and (likely) V1017 Sgr. On July 30, William Liller, a regular visitor to La Silla and owner of a private observatory in Vina del Mar (a sea resort on the coast of Chile), discovered on a sky patrol film a 10^th-magnitude star that was not there the night before. Its position coincided, as was found after some re-examination of old photographic plates, within an arcsecond of the position of a nova that had flared up on May 10, 1937. This poorly known nova, V745 Sco, thus became the seventh known recurrent nova.
