Four colour photometry of late-type binary systems
This paper presents rst complete uvby light curves of the late-type detached eclipsing binary ZZ UMa (G0V + G8V, P =2 : d 2993). This binary system has been observed during eight campaigns at the Calar Alto Observatory (Almeria, Spain)and at the Sierra Nevada Observatory (Granada, Spain). 294 points distributed over the binary period and covering both eclipses are given. The comparison stars used to calculate the dierential light curves (SAO 15242 and SAO 15251) were conrmed as being good reference stars with constant flux. These observations are part of a 6 year uvby and H monitor- ing program of low mass eclipsing binaries whose main objective is to provide accurate absolute astrophysical…
Four colour photometry of late-type binary systems
This paper presents new complete uvby light curves of the late-type detached eclipsing binary BH Vir (G0V + G5V, P =0 : 81687099). This binary system has been observed during four cam- paigns at the Calar Alto Observatory (Almeria, Spain) and at the European Southern Observatory (La Silla, Chile). This observations are part of a 6 yearuvby and H monitoring program of low mass eclipsing binaries which main objective is to provide accurate absolute astrophys- ical parameters for late-type main sequence stars. 1585 points spreaded over the binary period and covering both eclipses are given. The internal accuracy of the standard photometry measured as the mean RMS of the dierences between stand…
Four colour photometry of binary systems
This paper presents new uvby light curves of the detached eclipsing binary CR Cas together with some H measurements. From the analysis of the photometry we have estimated preliminary values for interstellar red- dening and distance, radiative parameters of both compo- nents and an approximation to the geometrical elements of the system. The intrinsic photometric indices are com- patible with spectral types B0.5V + B1V.
Background in low Earth orbits measured by LEGRI telescope – short and long term variability
Abstract In this paper we present the first Low Energy Gamma Ray Imager (LEGRI) background measurements which were carried out in the earlier nominal operation activities of LEGRI Instrument on board MINISAT-01, after initial spacecraft and instrument check-up procedures. Short term (daily) and expected long term background variability is presented. A background model is also discussed in order to be used for celestial γ-ray emitters observations.
Absolute parameters for binary systems
New high-quality light curves of the late-type binary system BH Vir have been obtained during a 6 year photometric uvby and monitoring program of low mass eclipsing binaries (Clement et al. 1997), hereafter Papers I and II. This paper presents detailed analysis of this binary based on the four light curves obtained within our program. The activity wave superimposed on the eclipse-modulated light curves has been adjusted and removed by using a new iterative application of the standard EBOP code together with truncated Fourier Series fittings. Combining the recent radial velocity curves (Popper 1995) with the geometrical elements deduced from the "clean" photometric light curves, the absolute…
Absolute parameters for binary systems
New light curves of the late-type binary sys- tem ZZ UMa were obtained during a uvby and H mon- itoring program on low mass eclipsing binaries, that has been carried out in a six year photometric observational program (Clement et al. 1997a, Paper I). The main goal of the program is to obtain accurate absolute parameters for stars in the low and intermediate mass range, in order to improve the Mass-Luminosity Relationship (MLR) at the end of the main sequence. This paper presents a complete analysis of the rst uvby light curves of the late-type detached eclipsing binary ZZ UMa. This binary system has been observed during eight campaigns at the Calar Alto Observatory (Almeria, Spain). The act…
