The Spectroscopic Orbital Period of Hd 45166
نویسنده
چکیده
HD 45166 was selected as a candidate to the V Sagittae Class. It’s spectrum shows quite narrow emission lines of He, C, N, and O, possibly indicating a low inclination for the binary system. We performed high resolution and high stability Coudé spectroscopy in order to search for low amplitude radial velocity variations. The orbital period determined from the radial velocity curve is 0.357 days, and the radial velocity semi amplitude is K=3.8 km/s. The system inclination, determined from the mass function of the secondary star, is 0.7◦ < i < 1.0◦.

A hot story with many tales : the qWR star HD 45166 ⋆ I . Observations and system parameters
The binary star HD 45166 has been observed since 1922 but its orbital period has not yet been found. It is considered a peculiar Wolf-Rayet star, and its assigned classification varied along the years. For this reason we included the object as a candidate to the class of V Sge stars and performed spectroscopy in order to search for its putative orbital period. High-resolution spectroscopic obse...
متن کاملTen CORAVEL spectroscopic binary orbits of evolved stars
On the basis of Coravel observations, we present orbital parameters for 10 spectroscopic-binary systems including an evolved star, namely HD 13530, HD 28591, HD 47415, HD 78414, HD 123999, HD 153751, HD 174881, HD 179094, HD 212280 and HD 217188. The most significant result is related to HD 13530, for which we have found an orbital period of 1575.48±1.63 days and an eccentricity of 0.8815. Such...

In an effort to determine the orbital period of the enigmatic star DI Cru ≡ WR 46 ≡ HD 104994, we made photometric and spectroscopic observations of this object between 1996 and 2002. Both photometric and spectroscopic characteristics are quite complex. The star is highly variable on short (few hours) as well as on long (few months) time-scales. The optical spectrum is rich in strong emission l...

Aims. The aim of this paper is the dynamical determination of the quadrupole mass moment J2 of the main-sequence HD 209458 star. Methods. The adopted method is the confrontation between the measured orbital period of its transiting planet Osiris and a model of it. Osiris is assumed to move along an equatorial and circular orbit. Results. Our determination, for given values of the stellar mass M...

We present the analysis of an extensive set of high-resolution spectroscopic observations of HD 93161, a visual binary with a separation of 2. HD 93161A is a spectroscopic binary, with both components clearly detected throughout the orbit. The primary star is most probably of spectral type O8V, while the secondary is likely an O9V. We obtain the first orbital solution for this system, character...
