Spectroscopic orbital elements of Kappa-2 Bootis B

G. Á. Bakos

Open publisher page 193 citations

Abstract

The orbital elements of the spectroscopic binary star Kappa-2 Boo (HR 5328) are derived on the basis of radial velocity measurements covering 70 yr. Attention is given to the phase distribution of velocities and residuals. The period of the system is determined to be 1790 days, and the semiamplitude of the velocity curve is found to be 7.2 km/sec.
