VLA multifrequency observations of RS CVn binaries
We present multiepoch Very Large Array (VLA) observations at 1.4 GHz, 4.9 GHz, 8.5 GHz and 14.9 GHz for a sample of eight RS CVn binary systems. Circular polarization measurements of these systems are also reported. Most of the fluxes observed are consistent with incoherent emission from mildly relativistic electrons. Several systems show an increase of the degree of circular polarization with ...
متن کاملA NON-EMPIRICAL ROTATION-ACTIVITY RELATION FOR RS CVn BINARIES USING RADIO LUMINOSITIES
An analysis of a comprehensive survey of radio luminosities for RS CVn binary systems is given. A comparison is made between the rotation-activity correlations found using the usual semi-empirical Rossby number and a Rossby number deduced from detailed convection zone models. The use of a non-empirically derived Rossby number does not signiicantly improve the rotation-activity correlation. Alth...
متن کاملEvolutionary status of late-type contact binaries
An abstract should be given A new scenario for evolution of contact binaries is presented and discussed. Arguments are given that W UMa-type systems are formed from detached binaries which lose angular momentum via magnetized wind. This takes typically several Gyr. Such an age is sufficient for the initially more massive component to deplete hydrogen in its core and to fill the Roche lobe. As a...
