Gamma rays from nebulae around recurrent novae

Bednarek, W.; Sitarek, J.

Novae were discovered to emit transient γ rays during the period of several days to a few weeks after initial explosion, indicating presence of acceleration processes of particles in their expanding shells. In the case of recurrent novae, electrons can be in principle accelerated in the nova shells for the whole recurrence period of nova producing…
