Scientific paper

A preliminary spectroscopic orbit determination with period 5.7 days is reported for V1017 Sgr, the remnant of nova Sagittarii 1919. This is much longer than the typical periods of cataclysmic binaries, which are generally less than 0.5 day. It is suggested that V1017 Sgr, along with a few other systems of unusually long period such as BV Cen and GK Per, may form a distinct class of cataclysmic variables characterized by their larger, more resolved secondaries.
