ASASSN-17eg: refined period and about type
Using the ZTF data, I obtained a refined orbital
period of 0.07859690(5) d. The mean light curve
is unlike that of an short-period dwarf nova
or novalike, but is a smooth sinusoidal one
with a full amplitude of 0.26 mag.
The object looks like to me basically a reflection
variable. The 2019 outburst likely came from
an accretion disk formed by a small amount of
mass-transfer. The transverse velocity is twice
larger than that of OV Boo and ASASSN-17eg is
probably a population II binary.
