Abstract
Based on long-term SWIFT, RXTE, and MAXI observations of the X-ray novae H1743-322 (IGR J17464-3213) and GX339-4, we have investigated the morphology and classified the light curves of their X-ray outbursts. In particular, we have confirmed the existence of two radically different types of outbursts, soft (S) and hard (H), in both sources and revealed their varieties, ultrabright (U) and intermediate (I). The properties and origin of the differences in the light curves of these outbursts are discussed in terms of the truncated accretion disk model.
