  Continuous CCD photometry of Nova Aquilae 1995 was performed through the
standard B,V,R and I filters during three nights in 1995 and with the I filter
during 18 nights in 1996. The power spectrum of the 1996 data reveals three
periodicities in the light curve: 0.2558 d, 0.06005 d and 0.079 d, with
peak-to-peak amplitudes of about 0.012, 0.014 and 0.007 mag. respectively.
  The two shorter periods are absent from the power spectrum of the 1995 light
curve, while the long one is probably already present in the light curve of
that year.
  We propose that V1425 Aql should be classified as an Intermediate - Polar CV.
Accordingly the three periods are interpreted as the orbital period of the
underlying binary system, the spin period of the magnetic white dwarf and the
beat period between them. Our results suggest that no later than 15 months
after the outburst of the nova, accretion processes are taking place in this
stellar system. Matter is being transferred from the cool component, most
likely through an accretion disc and via accretion columns on to the magnetic
poles of the hot component.
