The cataclysmic variable X-ray binary 2A 0526-328 has a spectroscopic (orbital) period of 0.228600 days, a photometric (rotation) period of 0.21631 days, and a beat (photometric) period of 4.024 days. Radial velocity behavior is complex, suggesting orbital motions, a disk hot spot, and a spiraling gas stream. Emission line variations are large and not generally periodic. The system is discussed in terms of a nonsynchronously rotating white dwarf of the DQ Her type. The system presents several unique phenomena for this type of binary.
