Abstract

Although CI Cam, which showed an outburst in April 1998, has been regarded as a soft X-ray transient (SXT) harboring a black hole, it has some characteristics that can hardly be reconciled with the SXT picture. In this paper, we propose a white dwarf as the central accreting star in CI Cam.
