Nova remnants refer to the remnants of a nova explosion, which is an astronomical event characterized by a sudden increase in brightness of a star. This phenomenon typically occurs in a binary star system where one star is a white dwarf and the other is a companion star, often a main-sequence star or a red giant. In a nova event, material from the companion star is accreted onto the surface of the white dwarf.
