V697 Sco, the remnant of Nova Scorpii 1941 and currently at V ~ 20.0, is
found from photometric observations to have the characteristics of an
intermediate polar (IP) with an orbital period (Porb) of 4.49 h and a rotation
period (Prot) of 3.31 h. It therefore appears to be a member of the rare class
of IPs where Prot ~ Porb, which are probably discless systems. The prominence
of the modulation at 0.5 Prot, and its orbital sidebands, indicates two-pole
accretion.Comment: To appear in the November 2002 issue of PAS
