There is an overabundance of both carbon (0.20 \u00b1 0.05 dex) and sodium (1.0 \u00b1 0.3 dex) relative to their solar values, possibly the result of ejecta from the 1990 nova eruption being entrained into the red giant photosphere. We find <sup>12<\/sup>C\/<sup>13<\/sup>C =25 \u00b1 2, a value similar to that found in red giants in other recurrent novae. The spectrum in the region of the Na I D lines is complex, and includes at least six interstellar components, together with likely evidence for interaction between ejecta from the 2019 eruption and material accumulated in the plane of the binary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/pepsi.aip.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/FigNvSgr.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1954\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pepsi.aip.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/FigNvSgr.png 960w, https:\/\/pepsi.aip.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/FigNvSgr-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/pepsi.aip.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/FigNvSgr-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">PEPSI (R = 130, 000) observed velocity profiles of various strong emission lines in V3890 Sgr post the 2019 RN eruption at a phase of 0.709.
