Scientific paper

The 1990-1995 light curve of V Sagittae is shown to have brightness transitions lasting several days which separate extended intervals lasting months in a bright or faint state. These transitions recur with semi-regularity at a characteristic period of ˜240 days. Primary and secondary eclipses are conspicuous in the faint state, but are weaker when the system is bright. Our high-state spectra through primary eclipse show no obvious evidence for the rotational disturbance expected from an accretion disk.
