The mass accretion process onto the hot component of AG Dra and its explosive phenomena are discussed. The hot component seems to be a massive white dwarf (M > 1 M⊙). The mass accretion rate is estimated to be about 10−7M⊙/year. Many properties of the explosive phenomena agree with those of mild hydrogen flashes expected from this rapid mass accretion.
